Description

Explore the deep connections between human behavior and conflict in War and Ideology: 4. Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Security and Society, this work by Eric Carlton examines the fundamental questions behind why nations engage in warfare. Originally published in 1990, this text investigates whether war is a biological necessity driven by aggressive instincts or a cultural invention. Carlton looks across various societies to study the motivations of men and women in combat and how people are able to commit atrocities against enemies. A central theme of the book is how the perception of an enemy is converted into an ideology of aggression, whether consciously or unconsciously. This book provides a detailed look at how military training and ideology function to shape these perceptions. It is an essential resource for students and readers interested in anthropology, sociology, and the psychological roots of global conflict.

Key Features

Analyzes how different societies approach warfare and the specific motivations that drive individuals to participate in combat.

Examines the process of how enemy perceptions are transformed into ideologies of aggression through training and social structures.

Provides a historical perspective on the relationship between human behavior and the capacity to commit acts of violence.

Part of the respected Routledge Library Editions: Security and Society series for academic and deep study.
