Rational and Irrational Thought in Civilizations According to Freud and Nietzsche
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing Freud and Nietzsche and rational and irrational thought in civilization. Freud and Nietzsche had similar thoughts in regards to the formations of civilizations.

Nietzsche had a similar theory in that he thought that the laws in society were made by the weak to protect themselves from the strong and if humans were denied their natural place in the caste system and were forced to act against their human will or nature, then they too would be victims of unhappiness.
