The Biosociology and Evolutionary Sociology Section seeks to advance sociology with tools and knowledge provided by biology and evolutionary theory. Improvement in understanding the implications of biology and evolution for society is crucial for the continued progress of sociology as a social science. The Biosociology and Evolutionary Sociology Section will facilitate this process. Of particular concern is the interplay between material and social environments with human biological states. The section is designed to create a community of scholars within sociology who can critique and develop new research in the area. To this end, the section may sponsor meetings and conferences, newsletters and publications, and other means of communication deemed appropriate by the council of this section.
