The evolution of (intergroup) peace hinges on how we define groups and peace

Behav Brain Sci. 2024 Jan 15;47:e22. doi: 10.1017/S0140525X23002649.ABSTRACTGlowacki defines peace as harmonious relationships between groups maintained without the threat of violence, where groups can be anything from families to nation states. However, defining such contentious concepts like "peace" and "groups" is a difficult task, and we discuss the implications of Glowacki's definitions for understanding intergroup relationships and their evolutionary history.PMID:38224125 | DOI:10.1017/S0140525X23002649
