"Dehumanization" as a category for books encompasses narratives that explore the systematic stripping away of human qualities, dignity, and identity, often through oppressive social, political, or technological forces. These works delve into the psychological and societal impacts of reducing individuals or groups to sub-human status, examining themes such as alienation, exploitation, and the loss of individuality. Whether through dystopian settings, historical accounts, or speculative fiction, books in this genre challenge readers to confront the moral and ethical implications of treating people as less than human, ultimately prompting reflection on the value of empathy, compassion, and human rights.
