I recommend reading up on Hannah Arendt.

Hannah Arendt (1906–1975) was a German-American political theorist and philosopher, widely regarded as one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century. Her work explored themes of power, authority, totalitarianism, and the nature of evil.

She is best known for her books The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951), which analyzed the rise of Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia, and The Human Condition (1958), where she examined the nature of human activities—labor, work, and action. Another highly debated work was Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil (1963), in which she controversially argued that Adolf Eichmann, a key figure in the Holocaust, was not a monstrous villain but rather an ordinary bureaucrat following orders.

Arendt studied under philosophers Martin Heidegger and Karl Jaspers and fled Nazi Germany in 1933 due to her Jewish heritage. She later settled in the United States, where she became a citizen in 1951 and taught at several universities.

Her ideas continue to shape discussions on political philosophy, democracy, and human rights.
