Piotr Nowak

In this discussion, Piotr Nowak, a philosophy professor at Białystok University, dives into his thought-provoking book on the impact of the Holocaust on modern identity. He argues that conditions enabling such atrocities persist in late capitalism. Nowak explores the meaning behind 'After Jews,' critiques the tensions within Jewish tradition, and examines the uncomfortable truths of fascism. He provocatively links the roots of the Shoah to a resistance against secular modernity while warning of the potential for future violence against marginalized groups.
