Gaza as a test of Western empathy

Roberto De Vogli examines Western responses to Gaza through political critique, psychological and global health research, and testimony. The book argues that compassion is applied unevenly to victims, treating Gaza as a lens on moral double standards in Western leadership, journalism, and intellectual life. Its discussion connects that critique to broader questions of universal empathy, social justice, and emotional decolonization, and challenges prevailing narratives about the crisis.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in political and social analysis of Western responses to Gaza.
  • Readers seeking a discussion that brings psychological and global health research into conversation with testimony.
  • Readers exploring themes of universal empathy, social justice, and Western moral double standards.

Book overview

Selective Empathy: The West Through the Gaze of Gaza takes us to the heart of the greatest moral crisis of our time: the genocide in Gaza. Blending sharp political critique with psychological and global health research, haunting testimonies, and suppressed facts, Roberto De Vogli exposes the moral double standards of mainstream Western leaders, journalists, and intellectuals. The book reveals an international community that extends compassion to some victims while denying it to others. Gaza has become a mirror, a litmus test, and a moral blind spot in the West's eye. Will our civilization survive this crisis of humanity? De Vogli challenges prevailing narratives and calls for a new solidarity grounded in universal empathy, social justice, and emotional decolonization.
