But Reich's attempt to use historical perspective to lend the advent of Consciousness III sensibility a sense of Marxian inevitability is a failure.

"That animal societies are closed, and kept separated by distrust and antagonism," he writes, "has been a worry to all Utopians devoted to an ultimate brotherhood of man." Yet this xenophobia, which Ardrey considers innate, not only knits a society but defines it: "The stranger is necessary, and antagonism directed against him has a biological basis beyond wishful denial. The hostility assures that the group will consist of familiars...
