Among prelates and primates: from Darwin to Rousseau / Thomas, Paul   Journal Article
Thomas, Paul Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2009.
Summary/Abstract Darwin's understanding of evolution as involving his original concept of natural selection involves discussions of development, progress, human pride, the construct o `primitivism,' and slavery. These discussions have to a remarkable extent been ignored by political theorists. This omission is all the more surprising in that these same discussions also call to mind Rousseau's often misunderstood concept of perfectibility.
