Ultimate and proximate explanations of strong reciprocity
Strong reciprocity (SR) has recently been subject to heated debate. In this debate, the "West camp" (West et al. in Evol Hum Behav 32(4):231-262, 2011), which is critical of the case for SR, and the "Laland camp" (Laland et al. in Science, 334(6062):1512-1516, 2011, Biol Philos 28(5):719-745, 2013), which is sympathetic to the case of SR, seem to take diametrically opposed positions. The West camp criticizes advocates of SR for conflating proxima…

Impurities all around? Some thoughts on Geoffrey M. Hodgson, Economics & Utopia: Why the Learning Economy is not the End of History
In his wide-ranging book, Geoff Hodgson fights his battle against the view that there is no future anymore for expounding and discussing utopian ideas about ideal socio-economic systems. The notion that we have reached the end of history, that the ideological clash between different utopian designs has ended in a glorious victory of the liberal--democratic capitalist system, Hodgson argues, is seriously flawed. For Hodgson this does not imply, ho…
