News and current affairs

Homo economicus, the rationally acting egoist who populates economists' models, has recently attracted criticism as well, because all too often he does not represent the real behavior of individuals.

But homo economicus was never intended to be used for forecasting; its real purpose is to make it easier to distinguish between market failures and mental failures.

Banks that grant risky loans on too little equity illustrate the analytical value of homo economicus particularly clearly.

After all, living in a world that assumes we are homo economicus can encourage selfish habits.

The oldest distinction of homo sapiens - ritual burial of the dead - is disappearing.

Indeed, three years ago, a group of scientists led by Derek Wildman proposed, in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, that chimpanzees have been shown to be so close to humans genetically that they should be included in the genus Homo.

For example, according to Nobel laureate Robert Fogel, medical and nutritional advances since the Industrial Revolution have accelerated and directed the evolutionary process, making modern humans a fundamentally different species from Homo sapiens.

In 2011, bio-technology investor Juan Enriquez coined the term Homo evolutis to denote this shift.

Given this supposition, a single name (Homo sapiens) is used for both modern humans and the preferred ancestor, Cro-Magnon.

Indeed, paleontologists studying the physical origins of Homo sapiens will inevitably differ from archaeologists reconstructing ancient behavior over what constitutes an early modern human.

One leading idea was that modern humans' primitive ancestor Homo erectus left Africa nearly two million years ago, and dispersed into other areas of the world.

Regional populations then steadily evolved into Homo sapiens, with modern human behaviors first emerging in Europe roughly 40,000 years ago.

Growing archaeological evidence of key elements associated with Homo sapiens is emerging at sites in Africa that are more than 60,000 years old.

Given this hybridization, some researchers argue that the species boundary between modern humans and Neanderthals should be reconsidered, and that both should be classified as Homo sapiens.
