What is Sociobiology vs Socioecology: Consequences of an Unraveling Debate (Science, Society and New Technologies: Interdisciplinary Between Biological Sciences and Social Sciences) about?
As a theory, sociobiology is opposed to socioecology, a discipline hampered since its birth. The indictment of the ideological intentions of the first has obscured the notion that the growing domination of the image of the "selfish gene" has obstructed the necessary rise of the second. For 40 years, a terrible force of inertia has thus frozen the global analysis of socioecological interactions outside the theoretical bias externally imposed on social sciences by so-called "behavioral ecology", which amounts to a simple emanation of sociobiology. This book summarizes the methodological abuses and the illusory legitimations of a school whose sterility can no longer be concealed, but which is preparing to reinvent itself by cynically replacing its faltering laws by hijacking the recent advances in epigenetics. The authors shed light on unjustly sacrificed paths in the study of socio-ecological interactions. Book jacket
