Five Rules for Cooperation
*Martin Nowak, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA* Cooperation means that
one individual pays a cost for another to receive a benefit. Cost and
benefit are measured in terms of fitness. Reproduction can be genetic or
cultural. Cooperation is essential for constructing new levels of
organization in biology. The emergence of genomes, cells, multi-cellular
organisms and human society are all based on cooperation. Cooperation
enables evolution to be constructive. I will discuss five mechanisms for
the evolution of cooperation: kin selection, group selection, graph
selection, direct reciprocity and indirect reciprocity. Each mechanism
leads to a simple rule that specifies whether cooperation can be favored
by natural selection. I will argue that indirect reciprocity is the key
mechanism for the evolution of social intelligence and human language.
