The big questions

  • What are the key processes that explain cultural evolution over the long term and up to the present day?
  • What processes produce diversity and diversification (genetic, linguistic and cultural) and what influence do environmental conditions have in these contexts?
  • How do innovations emerge and spread in complex and diffuse social networks?
  • What new methodologies and trans-disciplinary approaches need to be developed to better address these issues?
