This video is a pround collaboration with friend and VFX Genius - @mp3Charlie Charlie Parkin - https://www.charlieparkin.co.uk/ What if Voldemort isn't actually the main villain of Harry Potter? What if he's a symptom rather than the actual problem - a symptom of something truly sinister (I'm not saying that Voldemort isn't sinister btw) This week's video draws on research into how radicalisation develops across the world, alongside Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson's research on Why Nations Fail. And maybe rather than focussing on destroying these individual monsters, there is another route Chapters 00:00 - 02:13 Introduction 02:13 - 05:16 The Reality of the Wizard-ing World 05:16 - 06:33 Where Does Voldemort Fit In? 06:33 - 09:24 How Extremism Emerges? 09:24 - 11:52 The Real Villain 11:52 - 13:37 The Slippery Slope 13:37 - 15:27 The Warning in Harry Potter 15:27 - 17:32 The Benevolent Individual Argument 17:32 - 27:45 Why Nations Fail 27:45 - 28:32 The REAL Message in Harry Potter 28:32 - 31:11 Unanswered Questions in Harry Potter Visual Elements and Assets Credits Hogsmeade - Universal Orlando Courtesy of CasaJump on Flickr https://www.flickr.com/photos/casajump/35101419635/ Sorting Hat 3D Model by Arham Mustafa Chaudhry https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/sorting-hat-fan-art-a85bee5713bc4535813ec78bdeb7b3f7 Dobby The House Elf 3D Model by ChloeRobynSmith https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/updated-dobby-the-free-house-elf-retextured-708212fbbbdf4d228ab4c8459d2203a8 Character images and likenesses featured are from the Harry Potter film series, distributed by Warner Bros.
