A landmark historical investigation into crimes against humanity and the nature of evil that is over two decades in the making. ''The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never make up their minds to be good or evil.'' Hannah Arendt I You We Them is a study of the psychology of some of the least visible perpetrators of crimes against humanity, the ''desk killers'' who ordered and directed some of the worst atrocities of the last two hundred years. It is also an exploration of corporate responsibility and personal culpability today, connecting the bureaucratic blindness that created desk killing to the same moral myopia that exists now in the calm, clean offices of global capitalism. It is a journal of discovery, based on decades of research, interviews with hundreds of participants, and extensive first-hand experience. It encompasses extended investigations into a number of specific cases, moving from the brutalities of Empire to the scorched oil fields of the Niger Delta, from the industrial complex of Auschwitz to the empty sites of the Bosnian genocide; bearing witness, recording, and attempting to understand. It is a synthesis of history, reportage and memoir, a sustained meditation on the nature of responsibility and injustice, and a book that will change the way we think about our past, present and future. ''I YOU WE THEM is a uniquely gripping journey around the landscapes of mass murder.'' -Philippe Sands, author of East West Street: On the Origins of Genocide and Crimes against Humanity
