Arlene Odergon, a psychotherapist, post-conflict rehabilitation specialist and UN consultant, explores how violence permeates our consciousness, turning ordinary people into participants in destructive conflicts. Based on her own experience and the history of the 20th and 21st centuries, she argues that war does not begin with a shot, but with the manipulation of feelings of justice and belonging. The author describes the mechanisms that spin the flywheel of war: a sense of moral rightness fuels cruelty, fear becomes a weapon, and trauma is the legacy of generations. The book is not only about hostility, but also about how humanity can heal through reflection, rituals and body practices, collective dialogue and the willingness to see one's role in a common past. "Hotel "War"" is a profound book-reflection on how to find a path to reconciliation.
