Podcasts about banality

This week, the HBS hosts discuss Hannah Arendt's concept of the banality of evil.In 1961, Adolf Eichmann was put on trial in Israel for crimes against humanity and crimes against the Jewish People. The philosopher Hannah Arendt covered the trial for The New Yorker. Her articles were collected in the book Eichmann in Jerusalem, which had the subtitle, A Report on the Banality of Evil. What did she mean by the phrase “banality of evil?” She remarks that there is nothing monstrous, hideous, or outrageous about Eichmann that one could point to as the root of his evil actions. Rather, she argued, he was “thoughtless,” that is, he lacked the imagination to understand the position of others. In this way, the evil he brought about has its source in a kind of unremarkable everydayness. Is her notion useful to us today to think about the multiple evils we confront?Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/podcast/arendts-banality-of-evil-------------------If you enjoy Hotel Bar Sessions podcast, please be sure to subscribe and submit a rating/review!

When World War II ended, SS officer Adolf Eichmann disappeared. As a key organizer of Nazi Germany's Final Solution, the genocidal program that murdered 6 million European Jews, Eichmann became one of the most hunted men on earth. For 15 years, he remained hidden. But in 1957, through the efforts of a West German lawyer, a blind man, and Israeli intelligence, Eichmann's trail was found, leading to Buenos Aires, Argentina…     SOURCES: Arendt, Hannah.

When you think of evil, characters like Hannibal Lecter, the Joker, and Michael Myers probably come to mind.  But what is evil really? Evil can take different forms: sadistic and brutal, but it can also be boring and normalized.  During the 1961 trial of Adolf Eichmann, political philosopher Hannah Arendt reported on the trial for the New Yorker Magazine. Her journalism became incredibly controversial due to her account of Eichmann, viewing him as “banal,” “normal,” and a “clown.” Learn about the “banality of evil,” what it means, how it can be used to interpret Nazi Germany, and its controversy on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Brace yourselves for another riveting installment of "Three Random Questions," where Brandon Tierney is "graced" by Hoff's presence. In this segment, the dynamic duo tackles the truly pressing issues of our time. First, they delve into the intricate world of party etiquette, with Tierney revealing his "rules" for celebratory gatherings, emphasizing the crucial two-hour "perfect zone" and the strategic timing of cake consumption. Next, prepare for a groundbreaking exploration of silence, as they ponder just how long they—and their colleagues—could possibly go without uttering a word, a challenge clearly designed to highlight their inherent inability to shut up. Finally, the segment takes a surprisingly dramatic turn with a discussion on witnessing car accidents, where Tierney recounts a harrowing personal experience and Hoff offers his distinctly unheroic, yet arguably practical, approach to such a crisis. It's a segment packed with invaluable insights, or at least, a lot of talking.

Hannah Arendt's 1963 book, “The Banality of Evil,” is actually wrong. It portrayed the lie Eichmann told when he was on trial. He said that he was “just following orders.” Arendt got conned. Eichmann was a true believer in Hitler's final solution and a committed Anti-Semite. On this episode of Cult Conversations: The Influence Continuum, I spoke with accomplished Israeli filmmaker Yariv Mozer about his award-winning series The Devil's Confession: The Lost Eichmann Tapes documenting senior Nazi SS officer Adolf Eichmann's role as architect in the planning and implementation of the Holocaust's Final Solution. We also discussed Mozer's latest Emmy Award winning documentary, the Paramount+ movie, We Will Dance Again, based on footage, facts, and stories from the October 7th, 2023, Nova Festival, in which Hamas militants suddenly attacked Israel. He is a third-generation descendant of Holocaust survivors from his mother's family, which he noted was an essential aspect of his story and identity. Learn more about your ad choices.

In The Banality of Good: The UN's Global Fight against Human Trafficking (Duke University Press, 2024), Dr. Lieba Faier examines why contemporary efforts to curb human trafficking have fallen so spectacularly short of their stated goals despite well-funded campaigns by the United Nations and its member-state governments. Focusing on Japan's efforts to enact the UN's counter-trafficking protocol and assist Filipina migrants working in Japan's sex industry, Dr. Faier draws from interviews with NGO caseworkers and government officials to demonstrate how these efforts disregard the needs and perspectives of those they are designed to help. She finds that these campaigns tend to privilege bureaucracies and institutional compliance, resulting in the compromised quality of life, repatriation, and even criminalization of human trafficking survivors. Dr. Faier expands on Hannah Arendt's idea of the “banality of evil” by coining the titular “banality of good” to describe the reality of the UN's fight against human trafficking. Detailing the protocols that have been put in place and evaluating their enactment, Dr. Faier reveals how the continued failure of humanitarian institutions to address structural inequities and colonial history ultimately reinforces the violent status quo they claim to be working to change. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Send us a textWhat can a Star Wars show teach us about organizing, resistance, and healing? In this episode of the Amplify RJ Podcast, I sit down with strategist, therapist, and writer Gabes Torres to talk about Andor—yes, that Star Wars show—and what it reveals about real-life revolution.We dive into how Andor de-romanticizes rebellion and reflects the complex realities of movement work: the banality of evil, conflict in organizing, disposability culture, and the painful but necessary tension between rest and resistance. Gabes shares insights from their piece on the show, their organizing and healing work in the Global South, and the ways marine mammals and myth can inform our strategy.Whether or not you've seen the show, this conversation is about so much more than the galaxy far, far away—it's about our world and how we build toward collective liberation with nuance, integrity, and care.0:00 – Intro: What is Andor + Character Breakdown 5:20 – Meet Gabes Torres: Healer, Strategist, Rebel  9:42 – How Andor De-Romanticizes Revolution  14:20 – Disney, Propaganda & Revolutionary Storytelling  19:35 – The Banality of Evil in a Boardroom  25:00 – Real-World Parallels: Propaganda, Gaza, Gorman & Genocide  26:45 – Parenting, Powerlessness & Purpose  29:21 – Consciousness Building as Resistance  32:20 – Gabes on Luthen, Clea & Strategy in Movement  36:42 – Bix, Trauma & Knowing When to Step Back  40:28 – Organizing Through Burnout & Wavering Commitment  44:30 – Humananizing vs. Ruthless Sacrifice47:40 – Disposability Culture in Movements  49:10 – Disagreeing Is Not a Failure of Solidarity  52:00 – Addressing Conflict & Building in Organizing  56:20 –  Is there Shared Vision for Our Resistance?  1:00:23 – Activist Ecosystems, Movement Mentorship from Marine Mammals  1:07:30 – Upside Down Triangle: Rethinking Power  1:08:50 – Support Gabes & Psychosocial Care for Organizers  Connect with Gabes:https://gabestorres.com/https://www.instagram.com/gabestorres/Read her article: https://gabestorres.substack.com/p/andorSupport mental health care for organizers in the Global South https://gabestorres.com/support/Rep Amplify RJ Merch Connect with us on:Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Threads, YouTube, and TikTok!SUPPORT by sharing this podcast and leaving a rating or review

On the surface, “Rosemary's Baby” is a horror film about a woman who gets taken advantage of by a satanic cult and impregnated by the Devil. In the end, it seems to be a satire on the competing entrapments of domesticity and ambition, and the boring conventionality of people who hope that opposition to convention will allow them to retrieve their lost youth. Wes & Erin discuss Roman Polanski's 1968 classic, and why it is that Satanic evil, when confronted with life's very frightening realities—including pregnancy itself—turns out to be so banal.

With only raw materials, could you recreate a toaster? Now could you do it considering the source of your materials, the effect extracting them has on the world, along with the use and inevitable destruction of it. This episode's guest did just that. Starting with the extraction of the materials, including learning 15th century techniques for smelting, created a toaster. Reflecting upon that project in today's world, is the topic of this episode. Where we dive into the philosophy of design needing a refresh in todays world in order to live in better harmony with our reality. Thomas Thwaites, Artist and Designer, joins me for this conversation. Check out his website for all of his projects, his TED talk and the project he's currently working on, a harmless car.

Elizabeth Minnich discusses her remarkable new book "The Evil of Banality- On the Life and Death Importance of Thinking." At the heart of Minnich's book is an examination of the phenomenon of what she calls Extensive Evil, where many people allow some sort of evil to occur. American Slavery, the Holocaust, and the Genocide in Rwanda are three examples of Extensive Evil (as opposed to Intensive Evil, in which an evil act is perpetrated by an individual or small group of people. Minnich contends that it is when we live life thoughtlessly that we so easily become participants in evil on a widespread scale. Minnich worked for many years with Hannah Arendt, who coined the phrase "the banality of evil" in the early 1960s and was harshly criticized for it.

To normalize the horrific, it takes lots of people going along. From the history of leaders lying, the current regime has learned that spewing new lies many times a day works to make reality conform to the lies. On this The post Mindless Banality Spreads Quickly. And It’s Evil. appeared first on KDA Keeping Democracy Alive Podcast & Radio Show.

Among the topics covered: Why authoritarian regimes, like Assad's, are fundamentally weak and unstable; How the future of the Middle East is constrained by anti-freedom ideologies; How the media coverage of Assad's fall is blind to the crucial role of ideas; How altruism prevents us from seeing others regimes, like Hamas, as evil; Why America's security depends on deterring bad actors, not nation-building. Mentioned in this podcast are Onkar Ghate's and Elan Journo's co-authored book Failing to Confront Islamic Totalitarianism, Journo's book What Justice Demands: America and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict , and Journo's and Yaron Brook's coauthored essay "The Banality of Putin and Xi."
