When a Monster Looks Like Your Neighbor
In 1961, the world expected to see a demon in a glass booth. Adolf Eichmann, architect of the Holocaust's logistics, stood trial in Jerusalem-and what emerged was far more unsettling than any monster. Here was a balding, middle-aged bureaucrat who spoke in cliches, complained about his stalled career, and seemed incapable of understanding why everyone was so upset. Hannah Arendt's account of this trial would ignite one of the twentieth century's fiercest intellectual battles, not because she defended Eichmann, but because she revealed something we desperately didn't want to believe: that the greatest evil in human history was carried out not by fanatics or sadists, but by ordinary people who simply stopped thinking. This wasn't the comfortable narrative of good versus evil we craved-it was a mirror reflecting our own capacity for moral blindness when we substitute independent thought with following orders, when we replace human connection with bureaucratic procedure.
