TRACES OF EVOLUTIONARY THEORY IN SOCIOBIOLOGY, RACISM, AND EGOIST GENE THEORIES

This article examines in detail sociobiology, racism, and the selfish gene theory, which have enhanced the importance of evolutionary theory in the formation of man. Racism is the belief that human groups have distinct behavioral traits and characteristics that emphasize physical appearance and that one race is more important and superior than another. In sociobiology, the analysis of the limits and possibilities of animal and human behavior is of great importance. In solving current problems, the principles of Darwin's theory, including natural selection, are given great importance. In the selfish gene theory, genes are described as machines and are assumed to control humans.
