| Popis: | Through qualitative, exploratory and bibliographical research, a theoretical reference is made on moral harassment, and the predominance of associating their commitment in the companies to people with perverse psychic profile is observed. This is the point to be drawn from Hannah Arendt's concepts, such as the "banality of evil", which is used in the work "Eichmann in Jerusalem: a story of the banality of evil". For Hannah Arendt, in the name of fulfilling orders, Otto Adolf Eichmann contributes to the functioning of the Nazi machine. From this work, the idea of lack of thought and ambition to identify moral harassment in companies is appropriated, proposing the understanding that the personality of the harasser does not necessarily characterize him; rather, harassment can manifest itself in an uncritical business culture. To reach this conclusion, in the first topic, aspects related to moral harassment in companies are analyzed, and in the second, it is the concept of "banality of evil" in order to argue in favor of its application to the identification of moral harassment in the work environment. |
