Not an expert but I believe that people are born good. Evil deeds begins from certain influences such as family, religion, culture, class, and race. Old saying that kids emulate adults.
Kids are born innocent. Adults taught them to do bad things. All in all, there is no such thing as inherent or genetically speaking instead the influences of the people around that kid can have a big impact on his upbringing.
Nice question!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
