I have a question. How does prosocial behaviour fit in with selfishness (properly understood?)

Michael,

There are 4 broad kinds of social behaviors -- actually, characteristic social attitudes (or CSAs, for short) -- that humans can take with one another. I gave a general overview in post 28 of this thread. See my post 28 in this thread and then, if that isn't enough explanation, please be more specific. As it stands, your question sounds like some kind of a high school thesis paper (e.g.,):
What influence did the philosophy or psychology of post-modernism have on the late 20th-Century art-deco of upstate New York?
:-)

Ed

p.s., I think it's maybe time to write an article on the 4 main ways that humans interact with one another -- tying game theory into conventional philosophy.
