In the tradition of political realism, this book provides an
important reappraisal of the concept of human nature in
contemporary realist international-political theory. With special
reference to the anthropology of Sigmund Freud, a consequential yet
terribly neglected and underestimated thinker in International
Relations, Schuett demonstrates that analytical and normative
theorizing of all international-political reality, its nature,
tragedies, and potentialities, requires a sophisticated theory of
human nature. Developing a Freudian philosophical anthropology for
political realism, he argues for the careful resurrection of the
concept of human nature in the wider study of international
relations.
