It typically refers to when group A dehumanizes group B, meaning they can treat them ammorally.

Sorta like that.

Heart of Darkness did the opposite, though. Marlow made a point that there wasn't much of a difference between the "savages" and the "civilized" and even preferred Kurtz's brutality over imperialist hypocrisy.

The Crime of the Congo by Arthur Conan Doyle is a good contemporary non-fic response to that book.

Ligotti is all about dehumanization
Darkness at Noon by Koestler is good along with Gulag Archipelago

The dehumanization of one's mind. Like how the person changes for the worse after reaching his destination, like the end of the river in HoD.

The arabs in L'Etranger are pretty dehumanised.
