32. Selfish Genes and Social Darwinism
- www.royalinstitutephilosophy.org
- Selfish Genes and Social Darwinism.
- We are survival machines - robot vehicles blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes. ...
- How is this fatalism really intended? Can it be read as mere determinism, a scientific belief in regularity with all reference to the distinctive agency of the genes removed? It will not normally be so read, because fatalism is one of the strongest and most seductive of popular thought-schemes. ...
- It is best approached by considering what it means to call organisms ‘survival machines’ for genes. ... This use is not entirely clear, but it is a lot clearer than the reversed one in which genes, which are parts, use their wholes as survival machines or ‘vehicles’ - like people buying cars. ...
- If we are merely expounding determinism, why should we pick out genes from the rest of the causal process? Genes are pieces of matter, ‘programmed’ along with the rest of the organism - that is, taking shape and acting in a particular way as a result of environmental pressures, of the physical and chemical forces working within them, and of the behaviour of previous organisms. ... (‘Genes exert ultimate power over behaviour’, p. ...
- It can mean simply that genes are specially useful in causal explanation. ... ) Second, ‘what evolution selects’ is not individuals or groups, but genes.
- It is not obvious why there should be any contest between individuals and genes; both are ‘selected’, though in slightly different senses. ...
- 8 These additions would make it possible to describe those aspects of biological change which do not take place within or between genes - that is, of course, nearly all of them. ...
- References to groups do not of course have to displace those of genes and individuals, but they do have to supplement them. ...
- Let us understand what our selfish genes are up to, because we may then at least have a chance to upset their designs (SG, 3). We have the power to defy the selfish genes of our birth We can even discuss ways of deliberately cultivating and nurturing pure, disinterested altruism, something that has no place in nature, something that has never existed before in the whole history of the world (215).
- Besides, if genes really have the ‘ultimate power’ they are credited with, all such escape routes must surely be blocked and all possible feelings would be equally alien. ... But Chapter 11 explains that culture is itself a product of a further set of alien and parasitical entities, called ‘memes’ or genes of culture, which are just as ruthlessly selfish as genes. ...
