We often hear the term “dehumanization” used in a variety of contexts. For example, dehumanization a set of beliefs, or a set of behaviors? Is it metaphorical or do people actually believe their victims are less than human?
In this episode, I talk with David Livingstone Smith about his fascinating, challenging, and insightful work on dehumanization, particularly in the context of the Holocaust. This is an episode that will definitely make you think.
David Livingstone Smith is a professor of philosophy at the University of New England.
