It’s a belief that unites the left and right, psychologists and philosophers, writers and historians. It drives the headlines that surround us and the laws that touch our lives. From Machiavelli to Hobbes, Freud to Dawkins, the roots of this belief have sunk deep into Western thought. Human beings, we’re taught, are by nature selfish and governed by self-interest.
Humankind makes a new argument: that it is realistic, as well as revolutionary, to assume that people are good. The instinct to cooperate rather than compete, trust rather than distrust, has an evolutionary basis going right back to the beginning of Homo sapiens. By thinking the worst of others, we bring out the worst in our politics and economics too.
In this major book, internationally best-selling author Rutger Bregman takes some of the world’s most famous studies and events and reframes them, providing a new perspective on the last 200,000 years of human history. From the real-life Lord of the Flies to the Blitz, a Siberian fox farm to an infamous New York murder, Stanley Milgram’s Yale shock machine to the Stanford prison experiment, Bregman shows how believing in human kindness and altruism can be a new way to think – and act as the foundation for achieving true change in our society.
It is time for a new view of human nature.

From the moment we are born, we are bombarded with individualism, private property, perpetual competition, capitalism, selfishness “What’s in it for me?”, “Treat yourself”, egocentricism (the world revolves around me), narcissism and sociopathy. We are told democratic capitalism (derived from 18th century enlightenment thinking) is the best system because people are innately evil and avaricious.
The world would be so much better if we threw these poisonous ideas into landfill and instead embraced sharing and co-operation. The best way to deal with scarcity/finite resources is to share.
