Perhaps, though, the distinction between Darwinism and Lamarckism is not so clear cut in human social evolution. For example, Darwinian natural selection can be seen to operate on ‘varieties’ of economic behaviour, however generated. See John Nightingale’s chapter in J. Laurent and J. Nightingale (eds), Darwinism and Evolutionary Economics, Edward Elgar, Cheltenham, UK, forthcoming.
