Selective Empathy by Roberto De Vogli

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.
“A brave and timely contribution… a passionate, scholarly and reasoned treatise which marshals considerable evidence and demands an engaged response” “Its power derives from its bold and uncompromising commitment to documented evidence… and a refusal to be subdued by vested interests.”
– Graham Scambler, in:
