Summary
Selfdestructive? It could be your death drive… Why would living entities harbor a wish for selfdestruction or even death? And if we look closer at the sufferings of existence, isn’t this longing to revert to an inorganic state quite understandable? This video explores selfdestructive tendencies in light of Freud’s death drive and death itself.Video: Selfdestructive?
