| Resumen en inglés | The Darwinian way to understand the distinctive characters of a lineage should never be confused with the definition of a natural kind. That should lead us to assume that there is no Darwinian way to understand the animal-human opposition. From an evolutionary standpoint, this distinction is unintelligible. The evolutionary perspective forces us to consider that each character point out as characteristic of Homo sapiens, or of the genus Homo, is nothing else but the derivation of a character state shared with the ancestors of these lineages, which imposes conditions that must be met by the evolutionary explanations for these characters. Compliance with these requirements sets us apart from anthropocentrism |
