Reciprocity (evolution): Reciprocity in social dynamics, Direct reciprocity & Indirect reciprocity

Reciprocity in evolutionary biology refers to mechanisms whereby the evolution of cooperative or altruistic behaviour may be favoured by the probability of future mutual interactions. A corollary is how a desire for revenge can harm the collective and therefore be naturally selected against.
