Abstract in brief

  • Humans typically cooperate within their groups to solve shared problems and benefit members, but larger issues like pandemics and climate change require cooperation across multiple groups.
  • Frequent interactions between different groups promote a shift from group-centered cooperation to universal cooperation by enabling people to reward cooperative behavior regardless of group boundaries.
  • The study's simulations suggest that universal cooperation is harder to achieve with many small, fragmented groups, highlighting the importance of intergroup interactions for fostering broader cooperation.]

Kun halutaan ratkaista globaaleja ongelmia, kuten ilmaston kuumenemista tai pandemioita, eri ryhmien yhteistyö, lisääntynet kauppasuhteet, kansallisvaltioiden liittoutuminen ja yksilöiden helppo liikkuvuus ovat tärkeitä. Kertoo tutkimus Science lehdessä. https://t.co/KLtbx5G8Eu
