Herbert Gintis, Professor of Economics at the Santa Fe Institute and the Central European University, explores why people cooperate in joint projects for the benefit of one’s group, even at personal costs. And why do we punish those who exploit the cooperation? How did the evolution stimulate moral behavior such as altruism and social control?
