The Myth of Evil

Meer over het boek

Exploring the contradiction in modern perceptions of humanity, the book delves into the nature of radically evil acts committed by ordinary people rather than inhuman monsters. It examines extreme forms of evil, such as war crimes and serial offenses, challenging the notion that evil is merely an external force. By analyzing cultural representations in fiction and media, it reveals how these ideas shape our understanding of morality and the portrayal of individuals involved in heinous acts, including contemporary issues like migration and terrorism.
