If selfishness, aggressiveness, the drive to conquer and dominate, really are among defining human traits, as every liberal philosopher since Locke tries to convince us, the oppression in civil society__.e. in the social sphere not regulated by the state__s a fact of life, and the basic civil relationship between a man and a women will always remain a battlefield.
