The book Modernity and the Holocaust is a very approachable book summarizing how the action of the holocaust was organized under similar assumptions and makes the argument that we’ve since organized most of our society around this principle because it’s efficient. We’re not committing the holocaust atm as far as I know but how difficult would it be for a malicious group of executives of a large company quietly directing a branch of 1000’s who sleepwalk through work everyday to do something egregious?
