The Merchant of Venice — Law, Procedure, and Moral Displacement (Audio)
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.
Episode Summary
This audio-only Deep Dive examines The Merchant of Venice as a systems model of legal authority, moral displacement, and institutionalized harm.
By focusing on incentives, procedure, and legitimacy, the episode explains how systems confuse legality with justice — and why cruelty can be enacted without anyone feeling responsible.
