Freud sets forth the idea that humans are essentially irrational beings attempting to balance the intrapersonal conflicts with the ID and Superego and the interpersonal conflicts with other individuals/groups. The natural order of humans desiring to fulfill the needs of the ID are repressed in order to satisfy the Superego. This conflict can build frustration and without proper mediation can lead to displaced aggression. In interpersonal conflicts, this displaced aggression can arise and be directed towards another group or individual making healthy societal relations a difficult task. An example of the frustration aggression hypothesis is the strong sexual desire in humans coming from the ID that may lead to aggression because of the bounds of society and cultural norms on controlling libido.
