Abstract
Humankind's proclivity towards social domination is constantly thwarting the thirst for democracy. Consequently, understanding dominance behavior will go a long way towards helping resolve conflicts rooted in social hierarchy and towards assisting movements for social equality. Ethnography from South Africa shows that, during change to greater democracy, socially high ranking individuals can experience a deeply personal crisis because the values and worldviews enshrined in such change are antithetical to those which have long been functional for their ascribed positions. As a result, parts of these individuals resist democratization.
