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.

"There are a lot of things that Telegram could have been doing this whole time. And they know exactly what they are and they've chosen not to do them. That's why I don't trust them," she said. The fake Zelenskiy account reached 20,000 followers on Telegram before it was shut down, a remedial action that experts say is all too rare. The regulator said it has been undertaking several campaigns to educate the investors to be vigilant while taking investment decisions based on stock tips.
