There will be survival benefits if we can respond with ethnopluralism

Ethnopluralism comes from adaptive political philosophizing. Political theories, like storytelling, can be positive preparation for the complexities of living, and therefore have survival benefits. Multiple perspectives can be examined to develop sophisticated responses to new political and cultural dilemmas.

Abstract and emotional parts of the mind can come together in political philosophizing, which can give advantages to those who can plan ahead in imaginative detail. We have grown beyond the direct responses without forethought of other animals, supposedly.

The ethnopluralism hypothesis is just such an advance notification of adapting to the modern world, and responding to new dilemmas, political and cultural, while living on our now crowded planet. There will be survival benefits if we can respond with ethnopluralism, as well as evolutionary advantages.
