En 'Ritos de Sangre', Barbara Ehrenreich ofrece una explicación audaz de la propensión humana a la guerra, explorando los orígenes de la violencia desde la prehistoria hasta los sacrificios humanos y los horrores de la guerra total en el siglo XX. La autora examina cómo los ritos de sangre fueron creados para dramatizar y validar la lucha por la vida, y cómo el nacionalismo moderno es una forma más sofisticada de ritual de sangre que evoca miedos similares a la depredación. Este ensayo trata de desentrañar el misterio de la atracción que la violencia ejerce sobre el ser humano.
