One is the normative moral theory in which virtue is equated with sacrifices that benefit one's own group in competition with other groups. If that's what virtue consisted of, then fascism would be the ultimate virtuous ideology, and a commitment to human rights the ultimate form of selfishness. - THE FALSE ALLURE OF GROUP SELECTION by Steven Pinkerбыстро Пинкер добрался до сути. и забавные пояснения в скобках, для дураков: (This does not, contrary to a common understanding, mean that people love their relatives because of an unconscious desire to perpetuate their genes.)
но в целом критика сдержанная и довольно убедительная. надо бы почитать обсуждение, там конца и края нет. разговоры...
и вот рецензия (более чем средняя) на Does Altruism Exist? by David Sloan Wilson.
