Document Summary
Ethnocentrism: tendency to favour one own"s group. Influenced by cultural learning, social and cognitive abilities. Common throughout a range of animal, plant, and 1 cell species. May have a basis in biological evolution. Ethnic clashes characterize 75% of armed conflicts (>1000 deaths) Supported by a range of recent simulations. Neutral start - 75% of population is characterized by ethnocentrism. Early stage in humanitarian dominance in about of worlds. Are there ethnic tags or viscosity of agent types http://jasss. soc. surrey. ac. uk/16/3/7. html. Easily triggered by trivial and arbitrary group definitions. Looks at how ethnocentric results can evolve in population where agents are interactions. This is an example of agent based models. Model what happens when large numbers of agents interact. Agent"s behaviour are governed by simple rules triggered by their local conditions. High level descriptions from dissecting the interactions. Let to idea of a robot that can build another robot.
