Social Evolution

2015
"It is a mater of dispute how far back evolutionary explanations of social order should be traced. Evolutionary ideas certainly appear in the work of the ancient Greek philosophers, but it seems reasonable to identify the origins of modern evolutionary thinking in the eighteenth century natural histories of civil society such as Rousseau’s Discourse ...

Evolution of Primate Social Systems: Implications for Hominin Social Evolution

Dunbar RIM, 2013
Understanding hominin social evolution has long been bedevilled by the fact that we have no general theories of primate evolution. As a result, most attempts to reconstruct hominin social evolution have been, at best, speculative. It has not been uncommon, for example, to identify a taxon of living mammals which face challenges similar to those faced ...
