Id. at 818, 102 S.Ct. at 2738. The policies underlying the doctrine recognize that exposing government officials to individual liability "can entail substantial social costs, including the risk that fear of personal monetary liability and harassing litigation will unduly inhibit officials in the discharge of their duties."
