Misogyny, Projective Identification, and Mentalization tells the story of women who have been erased, dismissed, and devalued, while putting forth a hypothesis about why the phenomenon occurs and what can be done to change this dynamic. Author Karyne Messina proposes that projective identification - the mechanism that allows a person or group to get rid of negative feelings, thoughts, or fantasies by attributing them to someone else - can (particularly in political and cultural settings) create a hivemind and lead to dismissal, humiliation, violence, and atrocity against women.
