The term degradation ceremony was first mentioned by Harold Garfinkel in his article on <em>Conditions of Successful Degradation Ceremonies</em><em>.</em> It refers to the process in which a person who has violated norms, rules, or laws is publicly shamed, has their status lowered (within a certain group they belong to or society overall), or is punished by having their rights or privileges taken away, or access to the group or society restricted.
