    DescriptionWe were invited to speak on Cult Chat, a New Zealand-based podcast broadcasted across 23 radio stations and multiple streaming platforms. In this episode, we discuss our research on mandated shunning, examining how it is used by coercively controlling groups to impose social exclusion as a means of punishment and control.

    We explore the psychological and legal implications of this practice, highlighting its impact on individuals and communities. Additionally, we introduce the growing movement advocating for the recognition of mandated shunning as a human rights violation and its potential classification as a form of coercive control.
