Paper Summary:

This paper illustrates the various theories of Gordon Allport and how they apply to Dennis Rodman's personality.

From the paper:

"Psychologist Gordon Allport described the phenomenon of concentric circles around the self, beginning with the family; extending to racial, ethnic, and religious compatriots; and then to members of the community or country. A kind of moral calculus favors those closer to the center over those farther away. It would have been no surprise to Allport that most Americans felt nothing when we killed Vietnamese but were outraged when the Vietnamese fought back."
