Agustin Fuentes on Human Nature, Early Experience, and Our Social Niche
Agustin Fuentes, professor of anthropology at the University of Notre Dame, gave this in-depth talk “Social Cooperation, Niche Construction, and the Core Role of Intergenerational Bonding in Human Evolution”. It comes with a warm and touching introduction by Jim McKenna. Great to see both of my friends in action!

just watched the Doug Fry one. the behavioral ecology/functionalism/neo-darwinism take is kind of disappointing with such rich analysis of nomadic hunter-gatherers. the biology/culture divide is present later in the questions. again, its really lacking in scope. Tim Ingold would have a field day on this stuff.
Yeah, Tim would dismantle the whole discourse probably - Ingold is a rare bird.
