The Art of Fair Self-Assertion - How to Unite Clarity, Respect, and Responsibility #855495

The Art of Fair Self-Assertion offers a practical, well-founded guide on how to unite clarity, respect, and responsibility in daily interactions. This book is aimed at anyone who wants to strengthen their ability to assert themselves—whether in family, professional, or social contexts.

With clear examples, hands-on exercises, and straightforward explanations, the book demonstrates how fair self-assertion can be applied across different areas of life. Readers will learn how to communicate their needs respectfully and authentically, resolve conflicts constructively, and strengthen long-term relationships. A special focus is placed on the connection between verbal, paraverbal, and nonverbal communication, which together allow for an authentic, clear, and respectful message. The book shows how words, tone, and body language can align to achieve fair self-assertion.

A particular emphasis is placed on current societal challenges such as violence against women, bullying, sexual abuse, and discrimination. Through realistic personas—such as victims of domestic violence, workplace discrimination, or school bullying—the book illustrates how fair self-assertion can be used as a tool to cope with these difficult situations.

The book provides concrete strategies to set boundaries, seek support, and foster respectful communication—verbally through clear statements, paraverbally through a confident tone, and nonverbally through open, self-assured body language.

This book is ideal for individuals who want to navigate personal and professional challenges confidently and ethically, while also contributing to a more just and mindful society.
