A锘縝out the Session

We know that remorse, on the part of offenders, has a powerful capacity to abate anger on the part of victims (and third parties). What this suggests is that anger is rooted, not just in perceived wrongdoing, but in concern that an offender fails to recognize and take responsibility for their wrongdoing. It also suggests that anger seeks the satisfaction of remorse itself. If that is right, then anger is fundamentally about recognition, not 鈥減ayback鈥 or revenge 鈥 a discovery of significant psychological, social, and political importance.
