(Evolutionary) Theories of warfare in preindustrial (foraging) societies.

Johan M G van der Dennen1.   

Abstract

I present an inventory of theories of war causation (and on the origin of war) in preindustrial (traditional, foraging, 'primitive', hunter-gatherer, band- and tribe-level) societies, with emphasis on the roles of natural selection, sexual selection and kin selection. Also the school of sociocultural evolution is briefly discussed.
