Humans inherited a violent interpersonal behavior. This is reflected by the similar rates of violence between primates and tribal humans. However, our violence has been decreasing overtime due to increased social structures. This talk focuses on animal social behavior and the historical decline of violence since the paleolithic era to modern times.
