Abstract

Stibbard-Hawkes and von Rueden argue that egalitarianism is best understood through process rather than outcome. We extend this by showing that the same inequalities and processes found in hunter-gatherer societies exist among children's peer cultures. This consistency, alongside early-emerging concerns for mutual respect, suggests egalitarianism may reflect foundational processes in social cognition, which particular ecologies and subsistence practices can refine.

平均主义的发展起源。

斯蒂巴德-霍克斯和冯·吕登认为，最好通过过程而不是结果来理解平均主义。我们进一步表明，在狩猎采集社会中发现的同样的不平等和过程也存在于儿童的同伴文化中。这种一致性，以及早期出现的对相互尊重的关注，表明平等主义可能反映了社会认知的基本过程，而特定的生态和生存实践可以完善这一过程。

期刊介绍： Behavioral and Brain Sciences (BBS) is a highly respected journal that employs an innovative approach called Open Peer Commentary. This format allows for the publication of noteworthy and contentious research from various fields including psychology, neuroscience, behavioral biology, and cognitive science. Each article is accompanied by 20-40 commentaries from experts across these disciplines, as well as a response from the author themselves. This unique setup creates a captivating forum for the exchange of ideas, critical analysis, and the integration of research within the behavioral and brain sciences, spanning topics from molecular neurobiology and artificial intelligence to the philosophy of the mind.
