Editorial Objectives

This series examines the links between the life sciences and politics. Diverse biological areas from which these links are drawn include: human ethology; socio-biology; ethology; genetics; evolutionary theory; neurosciences; biotechnology, and bioethics. The series focuses on the relationship between biology and politics and builds on what is already known in the biological sciences to help provide answers to long standing questions regarding power, politics, political behavior, and governance. The international array of papers and discussions in this series are used to illuminate and inform policy choices (biopolicy), political behaviour, leadership behaviour, international politics and political philosophy.
