Why war - still? Albert meets Sigmund in the ultimate match-up
chapter
posted on 2019-06-19, 10:01 authored by Toby MillerAfter reviewing various theories of why wars occur, notably feminist, postcolonial and
political-economic perspectives, this chapter takes a moment from long ago as its touchstone: a venerable debate about why war happens. It took place in correspondence 85
years ago between two founders of masculinist modernity: Albert Einstein and Sigmund
Freud. Their debate offers us some clues about how technocracy and masculinity meet in
metaphorical trenches, and what journalism should do to cover that encounter.
