David Livingstone Smith presents on the philosophical topic of dehumanization and sheds light as to why humans are capable of horrific atrocities that have occurred throughout history. While we usually think of people such as Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King when posed with the topic of great leaders, Dr. Smith discusses leaders who use powerful methods to provoke others to remove their inhibitions on treating people as subhuman creatures, causing them to perform evil acts such as wars and genocides.

Dr. David Livingstone Smith is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of New England and founder of the New England Institute for Cognitive Science and Evolutionary Studies. Author of Why We Lie, The Most Dangerous Animal: Human Nature and the Origins of War, and the 2012 Anisfield-Wolf Award winning Less than Human: Why We Demean, Enslave, and Exterminate Others, he has established himself as an authority in research on self- deception and dehumanization.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
