ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT HUMAN NATURE

MEANING OF HUMAN NATURE


According to Karl Marx. "Humans are capable of making or shaping their own nature to
some extent."
In the words of Edward O. Wilson, “human nature is a collection of genetic patterns of
mental development.” According to him, culture, rituals, art, and such are products, not part,
of human nature.
Human nature is a collection of rational attributes that all humans are supposed to have
inherently, such as ways of thought, sensing, and behaving. The word is frequently
considered to capture what it means to be human, or the nature of humanity.
Human nature is focused on perceptions about humans, their attributes, and their nature.
These expectations can be either implicit or overt about how we interact with others. A
individual may not have been able to specify what he or she considers the essence of morality
to be. Different beliefs about how other people are contribute to differing forms of relating.
