About this topic[edit]

It seems that various disciplines talk about "winner and loser culture". They have different definitions for it.

Places where I see this are in articles about the voting public in democracies after elections, as economic theory both for consumers and the labor market, and in discussions of online culture. In all of these cases it seems that the authors are most interested in describing the losers, perhaps with intent to either reform them to winners or to encourage them to accept their situations.

I failed to identify a source with an overview of the circumstances in which this worldview plays out. Also, there are other sources which describe this concept with different terms, but right now at the establishment of this article, I only have cited sources which use the terms winners and losers.
