Parochial altruism in humans

Nature, 2006
Social norms and the associated altruistic behaviours are decisive for the evolution of human cooperation and the maintenance of social order, and they affect family life, politics and economic interactions.

The Coevolution of Parochial Altruism and War

Science, 2007
Altruism—benefiting fellow group members at a cost to oneself—and parochialism—hostility toward individuals not of one's own ethnic, racial, or other group—are common human behaviors.

Evolution of parochial altruism by multilevel selection

Evolution and Human Behavior, 2011
The evolution of parochial altruism is not well understood. We study this problem by considering a prisoner's dilemma game with four strategies: altruists who cooperate with everyone; parochialists who only cooperate with members of their own group; traitors who only cooperate with outgroup individuals; and egoists who never cooperate.

Intergroup conflict engages a human behavior termed parochial altruism: For example, a soldier who fights against

Inframoralization predicts parochial altruism in ideological conflict

2017
Ideological conflict characterizes many of the most harmful manifestations of human aggression, including terrorism, genocide and war. Often this aggression is morally motivated, and imposes personal costs on the aggressor—features not fully accounted for by prior work.
