* Political ponerology is an interdisciplinary study of social issues primarily associated with Polish psychiatrist Andrzej M. Łobaczewski (1921 – 2007). As a discipline, it makes use of data from psychology, sociology, philosophy, and history to account for such phenomena as aggressive war, ethnic cleansing, genocide, and despotism. A full blown-pathocracy is known as a totalitarian state and characterized by a government turned against its own people. A pathocracy may emerge when a society is insufficiently guarded against the typical and inevitable minority of such abnormal pathology, which Łobaczewski asserts is caused by biology or genetics.
