Abstract: Abstract This chapter aims to prepare the most relevant concepts and mechanisms regarding social selection. To this end, a comparison between natural/biological selection and social one is done in its fundamentals, including the primary guide in that matter, namely social fitness. In this context, two essential logical dichotomies are put into evidence, from the perspective of social selection: formal vs. functional, directed vs. projected. The commandments of ethics/morals in social selection are also highlighted, focused on the (predominantly) deliberative way of social selection. Finally, the social evolution (as the abstract framework and finality of social selection) is positioned in a general logical scheme of the change—in fact, a typology of change is provided, with a universal meaning.
