Description
"Confronting Evil describes Fred Emil Katz's two journeys in response to surviving the Holocaust. One journey is that of a survivor who tries to come to terms with his own survival, and who must cope with survival guilt as well as the sense of rootlessness that can go along with it, The other journey is that of a behavioral scientist who, after years of psychological denial, gradually attempts to develop ways of understanding and addressing genocide and other acts of social evil. Responding constructively to some of the major horrors of the past one hundred years, "Confronting Evil explores the failure of the human sciences to predict, prevent, or even convincingly explain these horrors and the millions of violent human deaths that have resulted. The author emphasizes the moral context under which we live, which he calls the "Local Moral Universe." This Local Moral Universe can provide the umbrella for the most magnificently humane activities, yet it can also underwrite horrendously evil deeds. Therefore, it is crucial to understand how this Local Moral Universe comes about, how it exists as a distinct and identifiable entity, and the impact it has on human behavior. Only then can societies hope to prevent such horrors from happening in the future.
