How should one describe the reality that modern demagogues like Trump have created? For Susan Neiman, this is a crucial question, because how we describe the present determines our ability to resist it. In Let's Call It Evil, Neiman analyzes the current crisis of democracy from a moral-philosophical perspective and searches for its causes. With a lucid view of history, she shows how the normalization of misconduct undermines trust in the rule of law and leads to an erosion of common values. In a world where the ruthless pursuit of money and power is accepted without sanction, Susan Neiman calls for the defense of our morals, which are fundamental to the world we want to live in.
