About this listen

What does it mean to be responsible in a world that pushes us not to think? In this special episode of Mente Aprende, Jorge Franco 'interviews' the influential political philosopher Hannah Arendt. Together, they explore one of the 20th century's most unsettling concepts: the banality of evil.


Through a deep dialogue, we unravel how ordinary people can commit atrocious acts, not out of radical evil, but from a dangerous absence of thought. How does this 'banality' manifest itself today in our relationship with technology, bureaucracy, and politics? What is true 'action,' and why is it the only cure for apathy?


This isn't just an episode about philosophy; it's an urgent invitation to examine our own consciousness and reclaim the courage to think for ourselves.
