Уважаемые коллеги!
22 марта (пятница) в 18:30 состоится очередное заседание научного семинара Международного центра антропологии Homo sapiens historicus. С докладом на тему “Religion” as an Engine for Cultural Evolution" выступит независимый исследователь Ken Baskin.

Аннотация доклада:
Religion has been a problematic phenomenon for more than a half century, with first-class scholars questioning whether it even provided a useful category for study. Yet, its combination of myth and ritual seems close to universal. This presentation examines the phenomena we think of as “religion” through applying findings in complexity science and neurobiology. The result is a radical re-interpretation that suggests the function of religion is far more essential than what the mainstream model indicates. Rather than merely providing a path to worship and spiritual development, the behaviors we think of as religion provide a key human survival strategy, especially in times, like our own, when societies face existential challenges. The presenter will begin by explaining how, as David Sloan Wilson notes in Darwin’s Cathedral, the model of religion in Modernity is so different from pre-modern religions that it has made it almost impossible for scholars to see it clearly. He will then explore the history of religion through an application of evolution as viewed in complexity science. Finally, he will explain how an understanding of the neurobiology of perception suggests that religion is, in fact, a neurobiological imperative that has allowed societies to reinvent their worldviews when their old ones became an obstacle to social survival, focusing on examples from the Axial Age and Modernity. It is, in short, a key engine of cultural evolution.

Доклад будет представлен на английском языке.

Telegram | DID YOU KNOW?

Date: |

The company maintains that it cannot act against individual or group chats, which are “private amongst their participants,” but it will respond to requests in relation to sticker sets, channels and bots which are publicly available. During the invasion of Ukraine, Pavel Durov has wrestled with this issue a lot more prominently than he has before. Channels like Donbass Insider and Bellum Acta, as reported by Foreign Policy, started pumping out pro-Russian propaganda as the invasion began. So much so that the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council issued a statement labeling which accounts are Russian-backed. Ukrainian officials, in potential violation of the Geneva Convention, have shared imagery of dead and captured Russian soldiers on the platform. Russians and Ukrainians are both prolific users of Telegram. They rely on the app for channels that act as newsfeeds, group chats (both public and private), and one-to-one communication. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Telegram has remained an important lifeline for both Russians and Ukrainians, as a way of staying aware of the latest news and keeping in touch with loved ones. "He has kind of an old-school cyber-libertarian world view where technology is there to set you free," Maréchal said. Telegram has become more interventionist over time, and has steadily increased its efforts to shut down these accounts. But this has also meant that the company has also engaged with lawmakers more generally, although it maintains that it doesn’t do so willingly. For instance, in September 2021, Telegram reportedly blocked a chat bot in support of (Putin critic) Alexei Navalny during Russia’s most recent parliamentary elections. Pavel Durov was quoted at the time saying that the company was obliged to follow a “legitimate” law of the land. He added that as Apple and Google both follow the law, to violate it would give both platforms a reason to boot the messenger from its stores. The original Telegram channel has expanded into a web of accounts for different locations, including specific pages made for individual Russian cities. There's also an English-language website, which states it is owned by the people who run the Telegram channels.
