Abstract
The continuing importance of wars in international relations poses the question, where wars actually originate. Are they the inventions of the states , mere accidents of history or as indicated, they are ultimately rooted in human nature. In this essay I will try to find an answer to this question, through looking at some of the basic assumptions of classical political theorists and their critics, then moving on to discuss the main reasons behind warfare. Following the projection of the dilemma from the individual to the international level. I will move on and try to find the alternative roots of warfare, and showing a current survey in order to illustrate my point. Finally I will arrive to the conclusion that war does have its ultimate roots in human nature, however this view has some limits as well.
