Synopsis

The Myths That Divide Us confronts a question that cuts across disciplines and continents: how do societies come to believe the stories that separate them? This edited volume brings together seven original scholarly chapters that collectively examine how stereotypes are produced, embedded, and normalized across cultural, technological, linguistic, and political domains. The contributions span artificial intelligence, disability studies, postcolonial translation theory, multimodal media criticism, intercultural communication, wartime propaganda, and social psychology, revealing not isolated phenomena but a shared logic of division, one that operates through language, image, algorithm, and narrative alike. The volume emerges from and speaks to a world increasingly fractured by the very systems and texts through which people understand one another. Each chapter interrogates a distinct site where myths about 'the Other' take root and circulate, and together they demonstrate that stereotyping is never merely a cognitive error or cultural habit. It is a structure of power.
