  <span>ElieWiesel, being just a teenager, witnessed the murder of his family in the Auschwitz concentration camp, where Elie himself was a prisoner. During his stay in the concentration camps, he came to feel that being abandoned by God was worse than being punished by him. It was better an unjust God than an indifferent one, hence the expression that indifference, is the emotion more harmful and more dangerous than anger or hatred. Indifference is not the beginning; is the end. And therefore, indifference is always the friend of the enemy because he benefits from the aggressor, never from his victim, whose pain is magnified when he or she feels forgotten.</span>

In his speech “The Perils of Indifference”, Wiesel voices out that he believes indifference to even be more dangerous than anger and hatred. The two aforementioned emotions can push a person to action, whereas indifference shows a lack of compassion by not even acknowledging the injustice happening.  Indifference, while not actively causing harm, will always be an advantage to evil and thus is dangerous in itself.

Answer:

the bystander effect.

Explanation:

According to the bystander effect one is less likely to help a person when there number of people in the vicinity is high.

The reasons why this happens is due to three factors, diffusion of responsibility, ambiguity and behaving according to social norms.

  • Diffusion of responsibility

When there are a lot of people around one might think that someone else will take the responsibility of taking action. This may happen as one might think that someone else might be better suited to handle the situation

  • Ambiguity

If the situation is not clearly understood by the bystander then they will be less likely to help.

  • Social norms

One might think if they would help it would be going against the social norms and hence hesitate to do so.

Here, Mr. Hughes has decided not to help because of the diffusion of responsibility.

Hence, his reaction illustrates the bystander effect.
