NÉS POUR SE FAIRE LA GUERRE ? Les origines de la violence humaine - Christophe Darmangeat

▷ SUBSCRIBE TO ÉLUCID TO SUPPORT FREE INFORMATION 👉 https://elucid.media/offres/ ▶ Christophe Darmangeat is an anthropologist and lecturer-researcher at Paris Cité University. His research focuses on hunter-gatherer societies, the formation of inequalities and hierarchies, and the organization of collective violence. He runs the excellent blog La Hutte des Classes and is the author of several books, including "Casus Belli: La guerre avant l'État" (La Découverte, 2025) and "L'énigme du profit" (La ville brûle, 2024). In this interview by Carla Costantini for Élucid, Christophe Darmangeat tackles a profound question: Has war always existed? Behind this simple question lies a burning issue: if collective violence is inherent in our "nature," then humanity is condemned to tear itself apart for eternity. To shed light on this, Christophe Darmangeat revisits the origins of collective violence, challenging many preconceived notions about what human conflicts truly were before the advent of the state... 🟢 INSTALL THE FREE ELUCID MOBILE APP: Apple: https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/elucid-...
