Free / Booking Required

Dan Gretton has for the last decade been researching the world of the bureaucrats, planners and business people who colluded in the Holocaust (currently in development as a book - The Desk Killer). In this event he asks whether the psychology and behaviour that enabled genocide to occur then is still present today, in the institutional culture of transnational corporations?

Dan also will be focussing on the emotional 'compartmentalisation' that is a feature of both perpetrator psychology and corporate psychology. This event complements the screening of Shoah on Sat 10 Oct.

"This book is going to be extraordinary - both in its originality and in the impact it is likely to have" John Berger
