Banality of evil, Moral conduct, Coherence, the Good, Hannah ArendtAbstract
In this article we deal with the meaning of good in the framework of Hannah
Arendt’s moral conduct. We will start from her notion of banality of evil and her
anthropological conception of two-in-one to understand the characteristics of
moral behavior. Later we will recognize the negative elements that it constitute,
by avoiding evil from coherence. Finally, we will deal with the meaning of good in
such conduct by concluding that the latter–in an “authentic” sense–would not be
part of it, but could share the characteristics of the banality of evil.
