BANALITY OF EVIL

U ovom radu izlaže se filozofija Hannah Arendt s naglaskom na pojam politike, rata te na filozofske interpretacije imperijalizma i antisemitizma. Sve te teme uvod su za raspravu o Eichmannu u Jeruzalemu u kojoj autorica na zanimljiv način propituje granice osobne odgovornosti u političkom sistemu koji diktira svoja pravila. Zaključuje kako ljudi koji su činili zločine nisu to činili zbog nedostatka savjesti nego zbog zatomljene sposobnosti mišljenja i stvaranja vlastitog moralnog svjetonazora.This paper presents Hannah Arendt's philosophy with an emphasis on the concept of politics, war and philosophical interpretations of imperialism and anti-Semitism. All of these topics are an introduction to the discussion of Eichmann in Jerusalem, in which the author in an interesting way interprets the limits of personal responsibility in a political system that dictates its rules. It is concluded that the people who did the crimes did not do so because of the lack of conscience, but because of the suppressed ability of thinking and creation of their own moral worldview
