The controversial origins of war and peace: apes, foragers, and human evolution. The role of warfare in human evolution is among the most contentious topics in the evolutionary sciences. The debate is especially heated because many assume that whether our evolutionary ancestors were peaceful or warlike has important implications for modern human nature. One side argues that warfare has a deep evolutionary history, possible dating to the last common ancestor of bonobos, chimpanzees, and humans, while the other views war as a recent innovation, primarily developing with the rise of sedentism and agriculture. I show that although both positions have some support warranting consideration, each sometimes ignores uncertainties about human evolution and simplifies the complex reality of hunter-gatherer worlds. Many characterizations about the evolution of war are partial truths. Bonobos and chimpanzees provide important insights relevant for understanding the origins of war....

Does anyone know of multi-site registered (replication) projects in (cog) psychology looking for contributors for data collection around end 2024/first half 2025? Does a database/platform exist to find collaborators for such projects? Any suggestions are appreciated!🙏 #metasci#AcademicSky#cogpsyc
