In evolutionary biology, an organism is said to behave altruistically when its behaviour benefits
other organisms, at a cost to itself. The costs and benefits are measured in terms of reproductive
fitness, or expected number of offspring. So by behaving altruistically, an organism reduces the
number of offspring it is likely to produce itself, but boosts the number that other organisms are
likely to produce. This biological notion of altruism is not identical to the everyday concept. In
everyday parlance, an action would only be called altruistic if it was done with the conscious
intention of helping another. But in the biological sense there is no such requirement. Indeed, some
of the most interesting examples of biological altruism are found among creatures that are
(presumably) not capable of conscious thought at all, e.g. insects. For the biologist, it is the
consequences of an action for reproductive fitness that determine whether the action counts as
altruistic, not the intentions, if any, with which the action is performed.
Altruistic behaviour is common throughout the animal kingdom, particularly in species with
complex social structures. For example, vampire bats regularly regurgitate blood and donate it to
other members of their group who have failed to feed that night, ensuring they do not starve. In
numerous bird species, a breeding pair receives help in raising its young from other helper birds,
who protect the nest from predators and help to feed the fledglings. Vervet monkeys give alarm
calls to warn fellow monkeys of the presence of predators, even though in doing so they attract
attention to themselves, increasing their personal chance of being attacked. In social insect colonies
(ants, wasps, bees and termites), sterile workers devote their whole lives to caring for the queen,
constructing and protecting the nest, foraging for food, and tending the larvae. Such behaviour is
maximally altruistic: sterile workers obviously do not leave any offspring of their ownso have
personal fitness of zerobut their actions greatly assist the reproductive efforts of the queen.
From a Darwinian viewpoint, the existence of altruism in nature is at first sight puzzling, as Darwin
himself realized. Natural selection leads us to expect animals to behave in ways that increase their
own chances of survival and reproduction, not those of others. But by behaving altruistically an
animal reduces its own fitness, so should be at a selective disadvantage vis--vis one which behaves
selfishly. To see this, imagine that some members of a group of Vervet monkeys give alarm calls
when they see predators, but others do not. Other things being equal, the latter will have an
advantage. By selfishly refusing to give an alarm call, a monkey can reduce the chance that it will
itself be attacked, while at the same time benefiting from the alarm calls of others. So we should
expect natural selection to favour those monkeys that do not give alarm calls over those that do. But
this raises an immediate puzzle. How did the alarm-calling behaviour evolve in the first place, and
why has it not been eliminated by natural selection? How can the existence of altruism be
reconciled with basic Darwinian principles?

The question we are interested in is: which type will be favoured by selection? To make the analysis
tractable, we make two simplifying assumptions: that reproduction is asexual, and that type is
perfectly inherited, i.e., selfish (altruistic) organisms give rise to selfish (altruistic) offspring.
Modulo these assumptions, the evolutionary dynamics can be determined very easily, simply by
seeing whether the S or the A type has higher fitness, in the overall population. The fitness of the S
type, W(S), is the weighted average of the payoff to an S when partnered with an S and the payoff to
an S when partnered with an A, where the weights are determined by the probability of having the
partner in question. Therefore,
W(S) = 5 * Prob(S partner/S) + 20 * Prob(A partner/S)
(The conditional probabilities in the above expression should be read as the probability of having a
selfish (altruistic) partner, given that one is selfish oneself.)
Similarly, the fitness of the A type is:
W(A) = 0 * Prob(S partner/A) + 11 * Prob(A partner/A)
From these expressions for the fitnesses of the two types of organism, we can immediately deduce
that the altruistic type will only be favoured by selection if there is a statistical correlation between
partners, i.e., if altruists have greater than random chance of being paired with other altruists, and
similarly for selfish types. For suppose there is no such correlationas would be the case if the
pairs were formed by random sampling from the population. Then, the probability of having a
selfish partner would be the same for both S and A types, i.e., P(S partner/S) = P(S partner/A).
Similarly, P(A partner/S) = P(A partner/A). From these probabilistic equalities, it follows
immediately that W(S) is greater than W(A), as can be seen from the expressions for W(S) and W(A)
above; so the selfish type will be favoured by natural selection, and will increase in frequency every
generation until all the altruists are eliminated from the population. Therefore, in the absence of
correlation between partners, selfishness must win out (cf. Skyrms 1996). This confirms the point
noted in section 2that altruism can only evolve if there is a statistical tendency for the
beneficiaries of altruistic actions to be altruists themselves.
If the correlation between partners is sufficiently strong, in this simple model, then it is possible for
the condition W(A) > W(S) to be satisfied, and thus for altruism to evolve. The easiest way to see
this is to suppose that the correlation is perfect, i.e., selfish types are always paired with other
selfish types, and ditto for altruists, so P(S partner/S) = P(A partner/A) = 1. This assumption implies
that W(A)=11 and W(S)=5, so altruism evolves. With intermediate degrees of correlation, it is also
possible for the condition W(S) > W(A) to be satisfied, given the particular choice of payoff values
in the model above.
This simple model also highlights the point made previously, that donor-recipient correlation, rather
than genetic relatedness, is the key to the evolution of altruism. What is needed for altruism to
evolve, in the model above, is for the probability of having a partner of the same type as oneself to
be sufficiently larger than the probability of having a partner of opposite type; this ensures that the
recipients of altruism have a greater than random chance of being fellow altruists, i.e., donor-
recipient correlation. Whether this correlation arises because partners tend to be relatives, or
because altruists are able to seek out other altruists and choose them as partners, or for some other
reason, makes no difference to the evolutionary dynamics, at least in this simple example.
3. Conceptual Issues
Altruism is a well understood topic in evolutionary biology; the theoretical ideas explained above
have been extensively analysed, empirically confirmed, and are widely accepted. Nonetheless, there
are a number of conceptual ambiguities surrounding altruism and related concepts in the literature;
some of these are purely semantic, others are more substantive. Three such ambiguities are briefly
discussed below; for further discussion, see West et al. 2007, Sachs et al. 2004 or Lehmann and
Keller 2006.
The payoff matrix highlights the fact that weak altruism is individually advantageous, and thus the
oddity of thinking of it it as altruistic rather than selfish. To see this, assume for a moment that the
game is being played by two rational agents, as in classical game theory. Clearly, the rational
strategy for each individual is W, for W dominates N. Each individual gets a higher payoff from
playing W than N, irrespective of what its opponent does30 rather than 20 if the opponent plays
W, 10 rather than 0 if the opponent plays N. This captures a clear sense in which weak altruism is
individually advantageous.
In the context of evolutionary game theory, where the game is being played by pairs of organisms
with hard-wired strategies, the counterpart of the fact that W dominates N is the fact that W can
spread in the population even if pairs are formed at random (cf. Wilson 1980). To see this, consider
the expressions for the overall population-wide fitnesses of W and N:
W(W) = 30 * Prob(W partner/W) + 10 * Prob(N partner/W)
(As before, Prob(W partner/W) denotes the conditional probability of having a weakly altruistic
partner given that one is weakly altruistic oneself, and so-on.) From these expressions, it is easy to
see that W(W) > W(N) even if the there is no correlation among partners, i.e., even if Prob(W
partner/W) = P(W partner/N) and P(N partner/W) = P(N partner/N). Therefore, weak altruism can
evolve in the absence of donor-recipient correlation; as we saw, this is not true of strong altruism.
So weak and strong altruism evolve by different evolutionary mechanisms, hence should not be co-
classified, according to this argument.
However, there is a counter argument due to D.S. Wilson (1977, 1980), who maintains that weak
altruism cannot evolve by individual selection alone; a component of group selection is needed.
Wilson's argument stems from the fact that in a mixed (W,N) pair, the non-altruist is fitter than the
weak altruist. More generally, within a single group of any size containing weak altruists and non-
altruists, the latter will be fitter. So weak altruism can only evolve, Wilson argues, in a multi-group
settingin which the within-group selection in favour of N, is counteracted by between-group
selection in favour of W. (On Wilson's view, the evolutionary game described above is a multi-group
setting, involving a large number of groups of size two.) Thus weak altruism, like strong altruism,
in fact evolves because it is group-advantageous, Wilson argues.
The dispute between those who regard weak altruism as individually advantageous, and those like
Wilson who regard it as group advantageous, stems ultimately from differing conceptions of
individual and group selection. For Wilson, individual selection means within-group selection, so to
determine which strategy is favoured by individual selection, one must compare the fitnesses of W
and N types within a group, or pair. For other theorists, individual selection means selection based
on differences in individual phenotype, rather than social context; so to determine which strategy is
favoured by individual selection, one must compare the fitnesses of W and N types in the same
social context, i.e., with the same partner. These two comparisons yield different answers to the
question of whether weak altruism is individually advantageous. Thus the debate over how to
classify weak altruism is intimately connected to the broader levels of selection question; see
Nunney 1985, Okasha 2005, 2006, Fletcher and Doebeli 2006, West et al. 2007, for further
discussion.
4. Reciprocal Altruism
The theory of reciprocal altruism was originally developed by Trivers (1971), as an attempt to
explain cases of (apparent) altruism among unrelated organisms, including members of different
species. (Clearly, kin selection cannot help explain altruism among non-relatives.) Trivers' basic
idea was straightforward: it may pay an organism to help another, if there is an expectation of the
favour being returned in the future. (If you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours.) The cost of helping
is offset by the likelihood of the return benefit, permitting the behaviour to evolve by natural
selection. Trivers termed with evolutionary mechanism reciprocal altruism.
For reciprocal altruism to work, there is no need for the two individuals to be relatives, nor even to
be members of the same species. However, it is necessary that individuals should interact with each
more than once, and have the ability to recognize other individuals with whom they have interacted
in the past.[1] If individuals interact only once in their lifetimes and never meet again, there is
obviously no possibility of return benefit, so there is nothing to be gained by helping another.
However, if individuals encounter each other frequently, and are capable of identifying and
punishing cheaters who have refused to help in the past, then the helping behaviour can evolve. A
cheat who refuses to help will ultimately sabotage his own interests, for although he does not incur
the cost of helping others, he forfeits the return benefits tooothers will not help him in the future.
This evolutionary mechanism is most likely to work where animals live in relatively small groups,
increasing the likelihood of multiple encounters.
As West et al. (2007) and Bowles and Gintis (2011) note, if altruism is defined by reference to
lifetime fitness, then Trivers' theory is not really about the evolution of altruism at all; for
behaviours that evolve via reciprocation of benefits, as described by Trivers, are ultimately of direct
benefit to the individuals performing them, so do not reduce lifetime fitness. Despite this
consideration, the label reciprocal altruism is well-entrenched in the literature, and the
evolutionary mechanism that it describes is of some importance, whatever it is called. Where
reciprocal altruism is referred to below, it should be remembered that the behaviours in question are
only altruistic in the short-term.
The concept of reciprocal altruism is closely related to the Tit-for-Tat strategy in the iterated
Prisoner's Dilemma (IPD) from game theory. In the IPD, players interact on multiple occasions, and
are able to adjust their behaviour depending on what their opponent has done in previous rounds.
There are two possible strategies, co-operate and defect; the payoff matrix (per interaction) is as in
section 2.1 above. The fact that the game is iterated rather than one-shot obviously changes the
optimal course of action; defecting is no longer necessarily the best option, so long as the
probability of subsequent encounters is sufficiently high. In their famous computer tournament in
which a large number of strategies were pitted against each other in the IPD, Axelrod and Hamilton
(1981) found that the Tit-for-Tat strategy yielded the highest payoff. In Tit-For-Tat, a player follows
two basic rules: (i) on the first encounter, cooperate; (ii) on subsequent encounters, do what your
opponent did on the previous encounter. The success of Tit-for-Tat was widely taken to confirm the
idea that with multiple encounters, natural selection could favour social behaviours that entail a
short-term fitness cost. Subsequent work in evolutionary game theory, much of it inspired by
Axelrod and Hamilton's ideas, has confirmed that repeated games permit the evolution of social
behaviours that cannot evolve in one-shot situations (cf. Nowak 2006); this is closely related to the
so-called 'folk theorem' of repeated game theory in economics (cf. Bowles and Gintis 2011). For a
useful discussion of social behaviour that evolves via reciprocation of benefits, see Sachs et al.
2004.
Despite the attention paid to reciprocal altruism by theoreticians, clear-cut empirical examples in
non-human animals are relatively few (Hammerstein 2003, Sachs et al. 2004, Taborsky 2013). This
is probably because the pre-conditions for reciprocal altruism to evolve- multiple encounters and
individual recognitionare not especially common. However, one possible example is provided by
blood-sharing in vampire bats (Wilkinson 1984, 1990, Carter & Wilkinson 2013). It is quite
common for a vampire bat to fail to feed on a given night. This is potentially fatal, for bats die if
they go without food for more than a couple of days. On any given night, bats donate blood (by
regurgitation) to other members of their group who have failed to feed, thus saving them from
starvation. Since vampire bats live in small groups and associate with each other over long periods
of time, the preconditions for reciprocal altruism are likely to be met. Wilkinson and his colleagues'
studies showed that bats tended to share food with their close associates, and were more likely to
share with others that had recently shared with them. These findings appear to accord with
reciprocal altruism theory.
Trivers (1985) describes an apparent case of reciprocal altruism between non con-specifics. On
tropical coral reefs, various species of small fish act as cleaners for large fish, removing parasites
from their mouths and gills. The interaction is mutually beneficialthe large fish gets cleaned and
the cleaner gets fed. However, Trivers notes that the large fish sometimes appear to behave
altruistically towards the cleaners. If a large fish is attacked by a predator while it has a cleaner in
its mouth, then it waits for the cleaner to leave before fleeing the predator, rather than swallowing
the cleaner and fleeing immediately. Trivers explains the larger fish's behaviour in terms of
reciprocal altruism. Since the large fish often returns to the same cleaner many times over, it pays to
look after the cleaner's welfare, i.e., not to swallow it, even if this increases the chance of being
wounded by a predator. So the larger fish allows the cleaner to escape, because there is an
expectation of return benefitgetting cleaned again in the future. As in the case of the vampire
bats, it is because the large fish and the cleaner interact more than once that the behaviour can
evolve.
