Doing a paper on Social Darwinism, and I'm not sure exactly what path to take here since it is such a large and broad subject. This paper is for my Human Behavior class but since I'm such a Biology nut I thought I'd do something that I found interesting. So, I have selected the topic of Social Darwinism, just don't know what to narrow it down to.

Any insight?

just checking, u mean how hitler used darwinisim to say the same thing about people as darwin said about animals, right? well i agree with u that it is a broad subject and i admit i am a biology freak too. but in order to help, i need to know more about the assignement. what was the question asked? U could talk about how hitler and other people of his time took Darwins ideology about the how only the fittest survive and the weak dies, and applied it to humans. this gave him the mentality that he was just playing nature's game when he killed all the jews/gypsies/other handicapped people/etc... this subject is still quite broad though, but it does focus on human behavior. i hope i was able to help. if not, be more specific and pm me and tell me exactally what u need, and we'll continue from there...:)

Do some research in human sexual selection as it relates to darwinism. A good book is "The Red Queen" by Matt Ridley.
