This unfairness manifests itself as [[abuse]] in a [[Psychological abuse|psychological]], [[Economic abuse|financial]], [[Physical abuse|physical]] or [[Religious abuse|spiritual form]], and victims often are unable to protect themselves from harm.

Systems containing abusive structures are primarily designed to control individuals or manipulate them for material gain. Most social systems contain at least one structure that induces structural abuse. These structures, when allowed to exist, create a [[cycle of abuse]], wherein the abuse is repetitive or contagious in nature, and may become acceptable in other parts of the system.
