Zusammenfassung:
This special issue “Evolutionary Approaches to Cross-Cultural Anthropology”
brings together scholars from the fields of behavioral ecology, evolutionary psychology,
and cultural evolution whose cross-cultural work draws on evolutionary
theory and methods. The papers here are a subset of those presented at a
symposium we organized for the 2011 meeting of the Society for Cross-Cultural
Research held in Charleston, South Carolina. Collectively, our authors show how
an engagement with cultural variation has enriched evolutionary anthropology,
and these papers showcase how cross-cultural research can benefit from the
theoretical and methodological contributions of an evolutionary approach.
