Description
A sweeping, unsettling investigation into the machinery of extermination, this book traces how societies rationalize mass violence—turning human beings into “problems” to be solved and entire populations into targets to be erased. Through a blend of historical inquiry and sharp moral scrutiny, it follows the ideas, institutions, and everyday logic that make atrocity possible, asking what changes when cruelty becomes policy. Lindqvist’s distinctive style—part reportage, part essayistic history—connects distant events to reveal recurring patterns of dehumanization, propaganda, and bureaucratic distance. At its core, the book is a meditation on responsibility and memory, challenging readers to confront how easily “ordinary” thinking can be recruited to serve catastrophe.
