Smaldino makes a solid contribution to the literature on the evolution of human social organization by pointing out that group-level-traits (GLTs) often emerge from the interactions of group members in such a way that their effects are not easily partitioned into individual selection. However, we argue that he too readily dismisses institutional analysis as a tool for understanding these traits.
斯玛尔迪诺通过指出群体层面的特征（GLTs）通常是群体成员相互作用的结果，其影响不容易被分割为个体选择，从而为人类社会组织进化的文献做出了坚实的贡献。然而，我们认为他过于轻易地摒弃了制度分析作为理解这些特征的工具。
