Sinai, I. Robert
The Human Drama

Necessity and Chance.

In this book, the author has ranged over the whole panorama of human history to uncover the laws governing the rise and decline of societies. To understand the human drama, it is necessary to comprehend the nature of man. Basing himself mainly on the work of Freud, Sinai shows man as impelled by unlimited desires. Although Sinai views society as a system, he analyzes not the economic, or the ideological variable, but the political one with all its disastrous effects as the most crucial variable in the formation of every social system. 357 Seiten, gebunden (Peter Lang Verlag 1990) Mängelexemplar/near mint
