David Michael Buss (nacido el 14 de abril de 1953) es un psicólogo evolutivo estadounidense de la Universidad de Texas en Austin que investiga las diferencias sexuales humanas en la selección de pareja. Es considerado uno de los fundadores de la psicología evolutiva. Buss obtuvo su doctorado en psicología en la Universidad de California, Berkeley en 1981. Antes de convertirse en profesor en la Universidad de Texas, fue profesor asistente durante cuatro años en la Universidad de Harvard y profesor en la Universidad de Michigan durante once años. Los temas principales de su investigación incluyen las estrategias de apareamiento de los machos, el conflicto entre sexos, el estatus social, la reputación social, el prestigio, la emoción de los celos, el homicidio, las defensas contra el homicidio y, más recientemente, el acecho. Todos estos se abordan desde una perspectiva evolutiva. Buss es autor de más de 200 artículos científicos y ha ganado muchos premios, incluido un premio científico distinguido de la APA por su contribución temprana a la carrera de psicología en 1988 y una cátedra G. Stanley Hall de la APA en 1990. También es autor de Evolutionary Psychology: The New Science of the Mind, cuya cuarta edición se publicó en 2011. En 2005, Buss editó un volumen de referencia, The Handbook of Evolutionary Psychology. Su último libro es When Men Behave Badly: The Hidden Roots of Sexual Deception, Harassment, and Assault. Buss participa en extensas colaboraciones de investigación intercultural y conferencias dentro de los EE. UU.

Descripción del libro

Sex, Power, Conflict: Evolutionary and Feminist Perspectives pdf por David Michael Buss

Sexual harassment in the workplace, date rape, and domestic violence dominate the headlines and have recently sparked scholarly debates about the nature of the sexes. Concurrently, the scientific community is conducting research in topics of sex and gender issues. Indeed, more research is being done on the topics of sexual conflict and coercion than at any other time in the history of the social sciences. Despite this attention, it is clear that these issues are being addressed from two essentially different perspectives: one is labeled "feminist", while the other, viewed as antithetical to the feminist movement, is called "evolutionary psychology", which emphasizes the history of reproductive strategies in understanding conflict between the sexes. This book brings together leading experts from both sides of the debate in order to discover how each could offer insights lacking in the other. The editors' overall goal is to show how the feminist and evolutionary approaches are complementary despite their evident differences, then provide an integration and synthesis. In fact, several of the contributors to this unique volume consider themselves advocates of both approaches. As a stimulating presentation of the dynamics of sex, power, and conflict--and a pioneering rapprochement of the diverse tendencies within the scientific community-- this book will attract a wide audience in both psychology and women's studies fields.
