According to Hobbes, man's goal is domination, personal superiority, and wealth at the expense of others. Every war, every conflict starts from the envy that one feels for the other, while only mutual agreements can establish harmony. Radical and highly relevant, Thomas Hobbes, one of the founders of political philosophy, extensively analyzes human passions and proposes ways of better coexistence - perhaps even survival - in a society where instincts are primarily what determine actions and, by extension, human relationships. Before even presenting the "Leviathan" - the State which, having the monopoly of absolute power, seeks to maintain social peace - Hobbes argues in favor of the evil nature of humans, who, obeying their aggressive impulses, are heading towards mutual destruction.
