Résumé :
|
In this age of anxious preoccupation with cozy feelings, the formidable power of Evil is usually overlooked or trivialized. In FACING EVIL some of the most penetrating communicatiors of our time turn their attention to the dark side of the human psyche. They speak from the heart about mass murder, racial discrimination, war, and nastiness both personal and institutional. They explore ways to confront Evil and perhaps transform it into Good. In the end they ask : What is to be done ?
