Review Evolutionary Theory in the Social Sciences (Critical Concepts in the Social Sciences) (Vol. 1) / Routledge:

This indexed set collects the most innovative and insightful works on the subject of social evolutionary thought. From its very beginnings in the nineteenth century, in key pieces by Darwin, Malthus, Marx, Veblen, and Kropotkin, these volumes extend through to the end of the 1990s, encompassing both primary sources and the influential studies that have shaped the field in the present day. The collection includes a new general introduction, as well as more focused volume introductions by the editors. Volumes are arranged thematically as follows: Volume One (edited by William M. Dugger) focuses on foundations, including the early Malthusian bias, the Darwinian insight into the ubiquitous nature of change, the nature of institutions, human nature, and multilinear evolution. Kropotkin's emphasis on mutual aid as a factor of evolution is also included. Volume Two (edited by William M. Dugger) explores the nature of evolutionary theory itself, how it differs from equilibrium theory and from Panglossian apologies for the status quo. Volume Three (edited by Howard J. Sherman) presents Marxist views of revolutionary changes in society, including the debates on the origins of the family, changes in productive relations from one society to another, and the evolution of the state. [+]
Volume Four (edited by William M. Dugger) focuses on the views of the evolutionary economists (institutionalists) and presents an anti-Malthusian conclusion to the collection.
