On Saturday, December 14, the next meeting of the Practical Philosophy Club will again take place at the Kingdom (Biskupia St. 18/1). This time, we will discuss vigilantism. The meeting will start at 4:30 p.m., and the discussion will be held in English. Admission, as always, is free
How can we define the limits of vigilantism? What makes it different from other kinds of justice or activism?
Is it ever okay to take the law into your own hands? What situations might make it necessary or acceptable?
When does an act of vigilantism turn into a larger movement, like freedom fighting? Can you think of examples in history where this happened?
If people step in to help during crises, like natural disasters or community problems, is this a type of vigilantism? Why or why not?
Does vigilantism weaken the rule of law, or can it sometimes help fix broken systems?
What problems in society or failures in systems lead to vigilantism? Can these problems be avoided?
How does organized vigilantism, like cartels building roads or providing services, affect communities? Does it solve problems or create more?
How does the way movies or media show vigilantes—either as heroes or villains—change how people feel about real-life vigilantes?
