Carl Goldberg asks how malevolent transformation of personality takes place. In-spired by Fromm's work on the origin of destructiveness, Goldberg builds on Fromm's observation that an evil character tends to develop gradually by a succes-sion of innumerable acts of inhumanity that are often rationalized and dismissed. Goldberg has found that the road that leads to sadism and cruelty is often paved by a history of shame and humiliation. Goldberg proposes stages of the sequential transformations of shame, humiliation, and rage that eventually lead to malevo-lence. He illustrates the theory with a very interesting case study. Goldberg's stages provide the basis for rich clinical exploration that could lead to a research agenda into the various possible pathways for the development of the malevolent personal-ity.
