Abstract

Aan de hand van de strafzaak tegen Eichmann onderzoekt filosoof en jurist Klaas Rozemond of de klassieke opvatting over het menselijke kwaad moet worden herzien.Het morele bewustzijn van de dader is het klassieke kenmerk van het menselijke kwaad. Daarvan is sprake wanneer een mens welbewust schade aan anderen toebrengt, terwijl hij weet dat zijn gedragingen immoreel en misdadig zijn. In haar boek Eichmann in Jeruzalem stelt Hannah Arendt dat de oorlogsmisdadiger Adolf Eichmann niet voldeed aan deze klassieke opvatting. Volgens Arendt miste Eichmann het vermogen om na te denken en te oordelen over zijn eigen misdaden. Hij was zich er niet van bewust dat hij door de deportaties van de Joden naar de vernietigingskampen te organiseren betrokken was bij een enorm kwaad.In zijn boeiende boek bespreekt Klaas Rozemond onder meer Arendts opvatting over de banaliteit van het kwaad, Eichmanns verdediging, en het vonnis van de rechtbank in Jeruzalem. Daarnaast analyseert hij het geweten van nazi's en andere Duitsers tijdens de Holocaust, het gehoorzaamheidsexperiment van Milgram, het kwaad van Kaïn uit de Bijbel en van Callicles uit de Gorgias van Plato, het idee van het radicale kwaad volgens Arendt en Kant, het kwaad van Auschwitz en Westerbork, en de opvattingen van hedendaagse filosofen over het kwaad. Zijn conclusie is dat de klassieke opvatting inderdaad moet worden herzien. Niet het morele bewustzijn van de dader, maar het oordeel van de rechter en de toeschouwers is bepalend voor de vraag of de dader een vorm van kwaad heeft begaan.Klaas Rozemond is filosoof en jurist. Hij is auteur van het succesvolle Filosofie voor de zwijnen.

Abstract

"The Eichmann Trial Reconsidered brings together leading authorities in a transnational, international, and supranational study of Adolf Eichmann, who was captured by the Israelis in Argentina and tried in Jerusalem in 1961. The essays in this important new collection span the disciplines of history, film studies, political science, sociology, psychology, and law. Contributing scholars adopt a wide historical lens, pushing outwards in time and space to examine the historical and legal influence that Adolf Eichmann and his trial held for Israel, West Germany, and the Middle East. In addition to taking up the question of what drove Eichmann, contributors explore the motivation of prosecutors, lawyers, diplomats, and neighbouring countries before, during, and after the trial ended. The Eichmann Trial Reconsidered puts Eichmann at the centre of an exploration of German versus Israeli jurisprudence, national Israeli identities and politics, and the conflict between German, Israeli, and Arab states."--

Abstract

This book offers the first detailed examination of the law's response to the crimes of the Holocaust. In offers a fascinating study of five exemplary proceedings-the Nuremberg trial of the major Nazi war criminals, the Israeli trials of Adolf Eichmann and John Demjanjuk, the French trial of Klaus Barbie, and the Canadian trial of Holocaust denier Ernst Zundel. These trials, the book argues, were 'show trials' in the broadest sense: they aimed to do justice both to the defendants and to the history and memory of the Holocaust. Douglas explores how prosecutors and jurors struggled to submit unprecedented crimes to legal judgment, and in so doing, to reconcile the interests of justice and pedagogy. Against the attacks of such critics as Hannah Arendt, Douglas defends the Nuremberg and Eichmann trials as imaginative, if flawed, responses to extreme crimes. By contrast, he shows how the Demjanjuk and Zundel trials turned into disasters of didactic legality, obfuscating the very history they were intended to illuminate. In their successes and shortcomings, Douglas contends, these proceedings changed our understandings of both the Holocaust and the legal process-revealing the value and limits of the criminal trial as a didactic tool.

Abstract

Visualizing Atrocity takes Hannah Arendt’s provocative and polarizing account of the 1961 trial of Nazi official Adolf Eichmann as its point of departure for reassessing some of the serviceable myths that have come to shape and limit our understanding both of the Nazi genocide and totalitarianism’s broader, constitutive, and recurrent features. These myths are inextricably tied to and reinforced viscerally by the atrocity imagery that emerged with the liberation of the concentration camps at the war’s end and played an especially important, evidentiary role in the postwar trials of perpetrators. At the 1945 Nuremberg Tribunal, particular practices of looking and seeing were first established with respect to these images that were later reinforced and institutionalized through Eichmann’s trial in Jerusalem as simply part of the fabric of historical fact. They have come to constitute a certain visual rhetoric that now circumscribes the moral and political fields and powerfully assists in contemporary mythmaking about how we know genocide and what is permitted to count as such. In contrast, Arendt’s claims about the “banality of evil” work to disrupt this visual rhetoric. More significantly still, they direct our attention well beyond the figure of Eichmann to a world organized now as then by practices and processes that while designed to sustain and even enhance life work as well to efface it.

Abstract

This work examines thoughtlessness and seeks to illuminate the necessity and extent that reflection is involved in becoming practically wise within an Aristotelian virtue ethical framework. Derived from an Arendtian reading of Kantian aesthetic judgment, an account of thinking and judging is offered to supplement traditional accounts of practical wisdom.

Abstract

What is the relationship between anger and justice, especially when so much of our moral education has taught us to value the impartial spectator, the cold distance of reason? In Sing the Rage, Sonali Chakravarti wrestles with this question through a careful look at the emotionally charged South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which from 1996 to 1998 saw, day after day, individuals taking the stand to speak-to cry, scream, and wail-about the atrocities of apartheid. Uncomfortable and surprising, these public emotional displays, she argues, proved to be of immense value, vital to the success of transitional justice and future political possibilities. Chakravarti takes up the issue from Adam Smith and Hannah Arendt, who famously understood both the dangers of anger in politics and the costs of its exclusion. Building on their perspectives, she argues that the expression and reception of anger reveal truths otherwise unavailable to us about the emerging political order, the obstacles to full civic participation, and indeed the limits-the frontiers-of political life altogether. Most important, anger and the development of skills needed to truly listen to it foster trust among citizens and recognition of shared dignity and worth. An urgent work of political philosophy in an era of continued revolution, Sing the Rage offers a clear understanding of one of our most volatile-and important-political responses.
