Between Species
Between Species: Science and Subjectivity Barbara Smuts (bio) Every now and then, I look deep into my dogs' eyes and ask, "Who are you?" Usually the answer is a tail wag or a pointed glance at the cookie jar. But every now and then, they will get serious and stare back at me intently, as if to say, "Well, who are you?" Perhaps my dogs have been conferring with Donna Haraway, who understands that "Beings do not pre-exist their relatings."1 Safi, B…
Multilevel selection, cooperation, and altruism
Explaining Religion without Explaining It Away
Moving beyond the ecological functionalism of Pigs for the Ancestors, Roy Rappaport's subsequent work on ritual explored how the "obvious aspects" of ritual's formalism and the need to perform it literally embody in its performers expressions of sanctity and truth that counter the threats of lying and alternative inherent in symbolic communication. He recognized that symbolic meaning and truth presuppose social cooperation and trust between indiv…

The evolutionary origins of patriarchy
Male Aggression and Sexual Coercion of Females in Nonhuman Primates and Other Mammals
Feminism, the Naturalistic Fallacy, and Evolutionary Biology
Arnhart argues that a scientific understanding of women's nature, achieved through primatology and related disciplines, can serve as a basis for judging social arrangements. Those arrangements that promote the expression of women's “natural potentials” should be encouraged. Based on this argument, the key issues are (1) how to determine the “natural” potential of women, and (2) how to use this information to judge social arrangements. I will begi…
The Evolution and Human Behavior Program at the University of Michigan
In the Late 1960s and early 1970s, a revolution occurred in evolutionary biology when several investigators, including most notably W. D. Hamilton, R. L. Trivers, and G. C. Williams, began to apply Darwin's theory of natural selection to the social behavior of animals. This new approach to behavior, which came to be known as “sociobiology” after the title of E. O. Wilson's influential 1975 book, was rapidly applied to human, as well as nonhuman, …

Social relationships and ritualized greetings in adult male baboons (Papio cynocephalus anubis)
Reproduction in wild female olive baboons
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate several factors that influence female reproduction in a large troop of wild olive baboons ( Papio cynocephalus anubis ) based on 4 consecutive years of demographic data. Interbirth intervals were significantly shorter for females whose infants died before their next conception than for females whose infants survived. High‐ranking mothers of surviving infants had significantly shorter birth intervals than c…

Social Relationships and Social Cognition in Nonhuman Primates
Complex social relationships among nonhuman primates appear to contribute to individual reproductive success. Experiments with and behavioral observations of natural populations suggest that sophisticated cognitive mechanisms may underlie primate social relationships. Similar capacities are usually less apparent in the nonsocial realm, supporting the view that at least some aspects of primate intelligence evolved to solve the challenges of intera…
