Par violence latérale on entend le fait, pour des personnes qui ont été colonisées, de perpétuer cet état de choses par des méthodes qui ne favorisent pas le progrès mais visent plutôt à rabaisser les autres. Il s'agit, notamment, d'intimider, de manifester sa colère, d'asservir, d'humilier et de proférer des menaces ou des injures.
