Peter Kropotkin¹s fame is much more limited, he¹s known in anarchist circles as a significant 19th century anarchist thinker and author. Few people even in the anarchist movement realize that he made a contribution to the theory of evolution that¹s on a par with Darwin¹s. He believed that Darwin¹s central evolutionary tenet was wrong and that evolution was based not on competition, but on Co-operation. In enters the big headed ant. The big headed ant was introduced to Australia from Africa over a hundred years ago. Since its introduction it has slowly displaced indigenous ant species and has had a major impact on other insect species and animals in the Australia bush. The big headed ant has turned ant to be a major threat to indigenous ant species. Green, bull and other Australian ant species are normally wiped out when the big headed ant colonies a new area. Currently Darwin the capital of the Northern Territory has became the new front line in the battle to stop the speed of the big headed ant. The big headed ant¹s evolutionary advantage is based on its social behavior. Indigenous ant groups display competitive behavior within their subspecies. If two colonies share the same resources they compete against each other for these resources. The big headed ants behavior is diametrically apposed to the behavior of indigenous ants. If two colonies are forced to share the same resources they merge and Co-operate and don¹t waste time and effort battling each other over who shall use these resources. The big headed ants Co-operative behavior gives it the edge it needs to survive and prosper in a world that¹s dominated by competitive behavior. The story of the big headed ant¹s evolutionary success mirrors the story of human society. Although competitive capitalism is currently on the ascending across the world, the destructive tendencies of competition hold the seeds of its demise. Co-operative forces will always win out against competitive forces. Anarchism¹s underlying message is one that promotes Co-operation and opposes competition. Anarchism is based on the principles of voluntary Co-operation, the very principle that has given the big headed ant into the evolutionary advantage it needs to displace its competitive neighbors.
