In Response to "Warfare: An Invention-Not a Biological Necessity"

I agree with Margaret Mead’s article “Warefare: An Invention-Not a Biological Necessity.” At the beginning of the essay the author states that in order to get rid of warfare altogether would be asking for the world to rid its competitiveness as well as it class systems. The world would have to be equal in every way before warfare would no longer be implemented. Everyone in the world strives to be at the top. There will always be a desire for power. With class systems in every society it is virtually impossible to rid warfare. People at the bottom of the chain will always be fighting to climb to the top. They have a will to fight for the power. In a world that will never be equal there is no chance to get rid of warfare. Mead describes that it is our own nature to be competitive and fight for the power. It is human instinct. It is not something that we can just shut off.
