The Modern Synthesis was not widely adopted by paleoanthropologists until the 1950s, but the perception has been that this event had important theoretical and methodological consequences for the study of hominid evolutio...

Abstract The complex relations between Christianity and science seem to present a critical point in evolutionary theory, especially for the challenges it poses to the doctrine of original sin. I investigate the precise s...

Quantum Mechanics is arguably the most controversial theory ever constructed: its overwhelming empirical success contrasts with the perplexity about its basic meaning. Darwin’s evolutionary theory, on the other side, i...

Max Weber’s ambivalent view of evolutionary theory has sparked ongoing debate. While rejecting simplistic social Darwinism, his writings reveal an implicit evolutionary logic underlying broader cultural transformations...

Evolutionary biology has been a stage of debates between neo-Darwinian and neo-Lamarckian theories. Neo-Darwinism explains every evolutionary process in terms of the selection of random genetic variations. Thus, whatever...

Cooperation in organisms, whether bacteria or primates, has been a difficulty for evolutionary theory since Darwin. On the assumption that interactions between pairs of individuals occur on a probabilistic basis, a model...

La teoría evolutiva interpreta el comportamiento humano como adaptativo, es decir, contribuye a maximizar el éxito reproductivo de quien lo exhibe. Sin embargo, debido a que la reproducción implica un costo, aquellos ...

There are at least three different genealogical accounts of morality: the ontogenetic, the sociohistorical, and the evolutionary. One can thus construct, in principle, three distinct genealogical debunking arguments of m...

Traditional static security assessments difficult to capture the dynamic strategic interactions and behavioral decision-making inherent in extreme nuclear security risks. To address this, we propose a tripartite evolutio...

This paper discusses the thought of Fukuzawa Yukichi, probably the most influential Japanese intellectual of the late nineteenth century, with particular reference to his attempt to develop a theory of civilization. For ...

Abstract This study investigates the diffusion of new energy technology among the water sightseeing transportation industry driven by the low-carbon behavior of tourists, particularly focusing on the influential role of ...

Desde su obra seminal de 1976, Psicopatología moderna: un enfoque biosocial de los aprendizajes erróneos y de los disfuncionalismos, y por más de 30 años Theodore Millon ha desarrollado una ciencia compleja de la per...

A antiga aproximação da economia à evolução darwiniana tem recebido propostas mais acabadas recentemente, destacando-se, de um lado, o "darwinismo universal" (Hodgson) a cuja metateoria a economia deveria sujeitar-s...

An essential aspect of the current theory of adaptive speciation is the maintenance of phenotypic variation and the evolution of stationary stable phenotypic diversity, a phenomenon known as evolutionary branching. Theor...

The aim of this article is to propose the term ‘illiberal neo-intergovernmentalism’ (IN) to describe and explain Poland’s EU concept promoted by the government and some scholars after 2015. The methodology, based o...

The control of ultrafast optical field is of great interest in developing ultrafast optics as well as the investigation on various light-matter interactions with ultrashort pulses. However, conventional spatial encoding ...

The theory of sexual selection is the most widely accepted theory explaining the evolution of mating systems and secondary sexual characters. Polygyny is the most common mating system in mammals, and there is a strong co...

In this work, we present a model based on a competitive dynamics that intends to imitatethe processes leading to some characteristics of the geopolitical division. The modeldeparts from very simple principles of geopolit...
