Excellent- More about Why We Fight
Mike Martin argues that we don't understand what causes violence and conflict, and that there is a way to make sense of war and society by linking the evolution of our brains with our history of social development. Why We Fight shows how political dynamics, violence between individuals, and war between groups are all caused by deep-seated, unconscious urges to seek status and belonging.

The world of the 2020s is one characterized by instability, war, and societal breakdown, raising concerns about the future. However, it is important to question whether we have truly learned from the past and whether peace will indeed continue. In his book "Why We Fight," Mike Martin argues that we lack a comprehensive understanding of what causes violence and conflict, let alone how to address these problems effectively.
Despite this, Martin suggests that there is a way to make sense of war and society by linking the evolution of our brains with our history of social development. Through his book, he aims to demonstrate how political dynamics, interpersonal violence, and war between groups are all driven by deep-seated, unconscious urges to seek status and belonging.
Weaving together evolution, personal experiences of war, and over a decade of studying conflicts around the world, "Why We Fight" offers a transformative perspective on society, war, and ourselves. It challenges our assumptions and provides a blueprint for navigating the turbulent 2020s.
By understanding the underlying motivations behind conflict, we can begin to address these issues more effectively. Martin's book offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics of human behavior and provides a roadmap for building a more peaceful and inclusive world. As we navigate the challenges of the 2020s, it is essential to remain open to new ideas and perspectives and to work towards a future that is characterized by stability, peace, and social cohesion.
