BULLYING from Page 33, “NewSell” (Hewitt-Gleeson, Boardroom Books, New York 1984)

The word that most readily describes oldsell is bullying. There are different degrees of bullying: nagging, exhortation, threats, force, violence, extermination. There are different types of bullying: physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual. There are different contexts for bullying: self-bullying, domestic (family), economic, political, religious, electronic. Whenever someone uses threats of one sort or another, he or she is using oldsell on you.
