. . . Some early humans who cared new forms of social condition, perhaps in the context of collaborative foraging. Early humans’ new form of collaborative activity was unique among primates because it was structured by joint goals and joint attention into a kind of second-personal ‘joint intentionality’ of the moment, a “we” intentionality with a particular other, within which each participant had an individual role and an individual perspective. Early humans’ new form of cooperative communication -- the natural gestures of pointing and pantomiming -- enabled them to coordinate their roles and perspectives on external situations with a collaborative partner toward various kinds of joint objectives. The result was that these early humans “cooperativized” great ape individuals intentionality into human joint intentionality involving new form of cognitive representation (perspectival, symbolic), inference (socially recursive), and self-monitoring (regulating one’s actions from the perspective of a cooperative partner), which when put to use in solving concrete problems of social coordination, constituted a radically new form of thinking. ~ Page 33

Universal cooperation is a chimera, unfortunately
It would be essential to solve the problem of climate change and poverty
Very appropriate, Dinesh
