Living in Truth: Václav Havel’s Power of the Powerless

It might be the greatest text ever written depicting the nature and fragility of late communist power: Václav Havel’s 1978 essay The Power of the Powerless. The green grocer who puts the slogan “Workers of the world, unite!” on his shop window becomes a symbol not of socialist enthusiasm, but of the indignity of enforced consent – lives lived in lies. Charles University Humanities Scholar and IWM Patočka Fellow Milan Hanyš discusses the relevance of ­Havel’s concepts of human existence, “­living in truth”, human dignity and individual rights to the contemporary political condition of the West. Moderation by Ludger Hagedorn. Speakers: Milan Hanyš & Ludger Hagedorn This discussion formed part of the Vienna Humanties Festival 2018, to find out more about the festival, visit TTTdebates.org at: https://www.tttdebates.org/vienna-hum...
