"Throughout history, artists, theologians, philosophers, and scientists have debated a fundamental human duality: our capacity for both selfless altruism and selfish exploitation. Recently, the developmental psychopathology perspective has blended together the light and the dark of human nature by stressing that prosociality and antisociality lie on a continuum, and a given individual can manifest shades of antisocial behavior that depend on the ongoing progression of organism-environment transactions. It is also important to note that the fuzzy boundary between the prosocial and antisocial lies in the eye of the beholder and, therefore, constantly shifts in response to changing historical, cultural, and political influences.- Within the context of this broad theoretical framework, this volume brings together a collection of innovative scholars from a variety of perspectives to present the current state of research and theory regarding the formation of narcissism and Machiavellianism among young people. This body of work sheds new light on the development of personality styles and behavioral patterns that are characterized by antisocial and exploitive elements while simultaneously illuminating many of the essential dynamics that underlie a more prosocial orientation. Whereas narcissism and Machiavellianism have been studied extensively among adult populations, researchers have only recently begun examining the earlier developmental manifestations and correlates of these constructs. Therefore, this volume is intended both to serve as a synopsis of a body of literature that is still in its infancy and to act as a springboard to future theoretical formulations and empirical work.- Key themes of this volume include how narcissism and Machiavellianism can be assessed in young persons, how these constructs relate to prosocial and antisocial behavioral patterns, and how knowledge of these constructs can inform the development of new techniques designed to curtail antisocial behavior in general and aggression in particular"--Introduction.
