Financial TimesHave good intentions  over-parenting and the decline in unsupervised play led to
the emergence of modern identity politics and hypersensitivity? In this book  free speech
campaigner Greg Lukianoff and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt investigate a new cultural
phenomenon of safetyism  beginning on American college campuses in 2014 and spreading
throughout academic institutions in the English-speaking world. Looking at the consequences of
paranoid parenting  the increase in anxiety and depression amongst students and the rise of new
ideas about justice  Lukianoff and Haidt argue that well-intended but misguided attempts to
protect young people are damaging their development and mental health  the functioning of
educational systems and even democracy itself.
