N2 - Because intergroup interactions often are mixed-motive rather than strictly zero-sum groups often negotiate settlements that enable both cultures to thrive. Moreover group prosperity rests on in-group love (rather than out-group hate) that emerges also absent intergroup competition or comparison. It follows that cultural group selection (CGS) reflects group effectiveness in organizing in-group trust and cooperation rather than winning (in)direct intergroup competitions.
