In view of this act of violence, Fromm distinguishes between „not hating, not judging, and understanding, on the one hand, and, at the same time, being utterly realistic and unsentimental". Then Fromm returns to Freud's theory of aggression and the question of how, according to Freud, the potential for aggression can be reduced. This is followed by empirical findings, as described in detail by Fromm in his 1973 book, which contradict Freud's ideas about an aggression instinct. However, comparative aggression research also shows „that man is much more destructive than animals are, that hardly any animal species equals man in viciousness, aggressiveness, destructiveness". - The lecture was given by Erich Fromm on the invitation of the Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association at Kaufman Concert Hall.

Using the example of the question discussed with Einstein, "Why war?", Fromm points to the change in Freud's concept of instinct. He discusses in great detail the question of why Freud did not connect his theory of life and death instincts with the polarity of the sexes.

In the first part of the fourth lecture Fromm discusses the connection between violence and environmental conditions by particularly drawing on Father Wasson's experiences with orphaned and often criminal children. For Fromm humans are not destructive because of their instinctual resp. animal inheritance; on the contrary, they are much more destructive than animals. Hence one has to search for the specific conditions of human existence to explain human destructiveness. According to the conditions one can differentiate between different kinds of human. A first type that is described in this lecture is playful destruction as a destruction without destructive intention - as for instance practiced in Zen Buddhism. A second type of destruction without necessarily having a destructive intention is instrumental destructiveness.

Human beings - besides many other competencies - are also able to experience ecstasis in a psycho-spiritual sense as well as in an extraordinary destructive way.

After criticizing Konrad Lorenz's hydraulic theory of destructiveness Fromm speaks of humanism as an inhibiting factor to instrumental aggression and of compassion and empathy in the relationship of humans to animals. In addition to playful and instrumental aggression this lecture presents a third type of destructiveness which has no aggressive motivation: organizational destructiveness. Whether or not this type implies aggressive motivation is illustrated by the difference between international wars and civil wars. - The discussion concludes with audience questions. - The lecture was given by Erich Fromm on the invitation of the Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association at Kaufman Concert Hall.

In the sixth lecture, Fromm analyzes the defensive or reactive aggression if vital interests are attacked that is common to animal and humans. Nevertheless, there is a decisive difference by what is experienced as vital interest since humans can also imagine a fictitious threat of vital interest. After a reference to dominance-submission patterns in animals, the vital interests of humans and their potential paranoid thinking, but also their reaction to coercion, injustice and frustration are explicated. Of particular interest is the specifically human hostility: not only to stay alive but to stay sane, which is the equivalent of being alive in the mental sense. This particularity holds true if the vital interest of staying sane is represented by and linked to taboos or idols or connected with a narcissistic idealization of oneself, of ideas or ofinstitutions. Finally, Fromm speaks of faked threats to his vital interests due to brainwashing.- The lecture was given by Erich Fromm on the invitation of the Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association at Kaufman Concert Hall.
