Darwinian Left

Book • 1999
In 'A Darwinian Left', Peter Singer argues that the political left should incorporate insights from evolutionary science to better achieve its social and economic goals.

He suggests that understanding human nature through the lens of evolutionary psychology can help foster cooperation and improve societal outcomes.

Singer also critiques traditional left-wing views on human nature, advocating for a more nuanced approach that acknowledges both competitive and cooperative tendencies in humans.
