Beschreibung
While acknowledging the guilt of the perpetrators of genocide, Schindler talks about the collective responsibility of the neutral bystander and victim and their response to evil. Referring to both the Armenian Genocide and Jewish Holocaust, he argues that non resistance, either because of faith in human morality or pious matyrdom, makes it possible for evil people to take control over the free will of others.
