Nonviolent Communication (NVC) is a communication process developed by clinical psychologist Marshall Rosenberg in the 1960s and 1970s based on the principles of nonviolence and humanistic psychology. It aims to increase empathic understanding and reduce conflict in everyday interactions. It foregrounds four components—observation (distinguishing concrete observation from evaluation), feelings, fundamental needs,[1] and requests—and encourages expressing observations and needs without judgment in order to foster voluntary cooperation.[2][3][4][5][6] Nonviolent Communication evolved from concepts used in person-centered therapy... Marshall Rosenberg's motivation for developing NVC was based on his own experiences at the Detroit race riot of 1943, as well as the antisemitism that he experienced in his early life. NVC's development was highly influenced by Carl Rogers' person-centered therapy, particularly the value of congruence, empathic listening, and realness https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonviolent_Communication (more)
