When asked what he thought about Western civilization, Gandhi isreported to have said, "I think it would be a good idea." Relatehis comment to Freud's theory about Eros (life or sexual instinct)and Thanatos (death instinct). NOTE: This question is really aboutusing Gandhi's remark as a way of understanding Freud, including acritical analysis of the concept of "civilization"itself.
