Keywords:
impulse; instinct; Sigmund Freud; Bertrand Russell.Abstract
Considering the First World War as a fissure in the pillars of the Enlightenment civilizational project, this article sought to analyze the essas Thoughts for the Time of War and Death, by Sigmund Freud, and Why Men Fight, by Bertrand Russell, with the objective of approaching the non-conscious origins of World War I, considering the use that each of the authors made of the idea of impulse / drive and trying to compare the use of this key concept by the author.
