Degradation ceremonies are social processes used to publicly denounce or shame individuals who have violated social norms or expectations. These ceremonies serve to reinforce group cohesion by highlighting unacceptable behavior and reaffirming societal values. Often ritualistic in nature, they can occur in various contexts, such as legal proceedings, religious settings, or community gatherings, and aim to restore social order by ostracizing the individual. Examples include public trials, shunning, or other forms of social sanctioning.
