Definición

  • Shunning is a social control mechanism used most commonly in small, tight-knit social groups to punish those who violate the most serious group rules. It is related to banishment and exile, although shunning is based on social rather than physical isolation or separation. [Source: Encyclopedia of Crime and Punishment; Shunning]
