In her contemplation of evil, Arendt initially spoke of the Shoah as a radical evil, a term used by Kant. However, unlike Kant, Arendt''s radical evil cannot be explained by human motives. Many years later she changed her mind and spoke of the banality of evil, characterized by an inability to think and judge. Superfluous People seriously considers the question of whether thinking and judging can prevent evil. The role of the Jewish Councils and a reflection on the question of guilt concludes this book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1 Prologue Chapter 2 Abbreviations Chapter 3 Introduction Chapter 4 Totalitarianism Chapter 5 Kant's View on Radical Evil Chapter 6 Hannah Arendt's View on Radical Evil Chapter 7 Eichmann in Jerusalem: the Banality of Evil Chapter 8 The Life of the Mind Chapter 9 Reflection Chapter 10 Guilt and Responsibility Chapter 11 Summary and Conclusions Chapter 12 Epilogue Chapter 13 Bibliography Chapter 14 Index","brand":"Rlpg\/Galleys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037795221847,"sku":"9780761833048","price":70.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780761833048.jpg?v=1750937355","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/superfluous-people-9780761833048","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
