the text itself, on the subject of Robert Ardrey’s book The Territorial Imperative, which looks for the instinctive origins of property and nations (no less) within the animal kingdom. Under the pretext of an invitation to humility (let us accept our animal origins and our instincts, and all will be well), the reader finds himself confronted with the return of the most conservative and patriarchal natural law of our social organizations. In order not to waste time, we will simply draw attention to the criticism made by Engels, at the end of the nineteenth century, of social Darwinists, when he denounced what he called ‘a conjuring trick’: we transpose our concepts, our uses and our categories of society onto nature, then we reapply them to society, and these categories, organizations and uses become natural laws.
