Social Bonding and Nurture Kinship
Social Bonding and Nurture Kinship: compatibility between cultural and biological approaches is a book on human kinship and social behavior by Maximilian Holland, published in 2012. The work synthesizes the perspectives of evolutionary biology, psychology and sociocultural anthropology towards understanding human social bonding and cooperative behavior. It presents a theoretical treatment that many consider to have resolved longstanding questions about the proper place of genetic (or 'blood') connections in human kinship and social relations, and a synthesis that ""should inspire more nuanced ventures in applying Darwinian approaches to sociocultural anthropology"". The book has been called ""A landmark in the field of evolutionary biology"" which ""gets to the heart of the matter concerning the contentious relationship between kinship categories, genetic relatedness and the prediction of behavior"" and ""places genetic determinism in the correct perspective.""The aim of the book is to show that ""properly interpreted, cultural anthropology approaches (and ethnographic data) and biological approaches are perfectly compatible regarding processes of social bonding in humans."" Holland's position is based on demonstrating that the dominant biological theory of social behavior (inclusive fitness theory) is typically misunderstood to predict that genetic ties are necessary for the expression of social behaviors, whereas in fact the theory only implicates genetic associations as necessary for the evolution of social behaviors. Whilst rigorous evolutionary biologists have long understood the distinction between these levels of analysis (see Tinbergen's four questions), past attempts to apply inclusive fitness theory to humans have often overlooked the distinction between evolution and expression.Beyond its central argument, the broader philosophical implications of Holland’s work are considered by commentators to be that it both “helps to untangle a long-standing disciplinary muddle” and “clarifies the relationship between biological and sociocultural approaches to human kinship.” It is claimed that the book “demonstrates that an alternative non-deterministic interpretation of evolutionary biology is more compatible with actual human social behavior and with the frameworks that sociocultural anthropology employs” and as a consequence, delivers “a convincing, solid and informed blow to the residual genetic determinism that still influences the interpretation of social behaviour.”
