Sociobiology is a form of biological determinism which argues that human social organization is constrained by genes that have been selected in evolution. In particular, it regards male dominance, hierarchical society, entrepreneurial economic activity, territoriality, and aggression as a consequences of human genes. It is shown that sociobiological theory is carefully constructed to make it impossible to test, that it makes a number of fundamental errors in attempting to describe "human nature," that there is no evidence for inheritance of human social traits, and that the evolutionary arguments used are merely fanciful, adaptive stories.
社会生物学是一种生物决定论形式,它认为人类社会组织受到在进化过程中被选择的基因的限制。特别是,它将男性主导、等级社会、创业经济活动、领地意识和攻击性视为人类基因的结果。研究表明,社会生物学理论经过精心构建,使其无法被检验,在试图描述“人性”时犯了一些根本性错误,没有证据表明人类社会特征具有遗传性,而且所使用的进化论点仅仅是虚构的、适应性的故事。
