Sociology and Ethics
Abstract
This article is a study of the Sociobiology of E.O.Wilson and its inter-pretation of ethics, begins noting by the questioning to this discipline, then takes the common thread that has been followed: a chronological sequence that begins with the articles of W.D. Hamilton on the altruistic behavior, Wilson’s initial approach, continues on the ethical field with the identification of two dilemmas, a new naturalistic interpretation of ethics, and ends with criticism of what Wilson calls: transcendentalism.Downloads
