Aggressionism

For the economic policy of restraining trade between states, see Aggressionism (economics).

Aggressionism is the philosophical theory that the only real cause of war is human aggressiveness.[1] This theory has dominated much evolutionary thought about human nature.[2] Nonetheless, many evolutionary biologists discount aggressionism as it promotes extinction.[3]
