Query: Natural selection. VII. History and interpretation of kin selection
  theory   Kin selection theory is a kind of causal analysis. The initial form of kin
selection ascribed cause to costs, benefits, and genetic relatedness. The
theory then slowly developed a deeper and more sophisticated approach to
partitioning the causes of social evolution. Controversy followed because
causal analysis inevitably attracts opposing views. It is always possible to
separate total effects into different component causes. Alternative causal
schemes emphasize different aspects of a problem, reflecting the distinct
goals, interests, and biases of different perspectives. For example, group
selection is a particular causal scheme with certain advantages and significant
limitations. Ultimately, to use kin selection theory to analyze natural
patterns and to understand the history of debates over different approaches,
one must follow the underlying history of causal analysis. This article
describes the history of kin selection theory, with emphasis on how the causal
perspective improved through the study of key patterns of natural history, such
as dispersal and sex ratio, and through a unified approach to demographic and
social processes. Independent historical developments in the multivariate
analysis of quantitative traits merged with the causal analysis of social
evolution by kin selection.
