问题   The theory of social Darwinism generally claims that individuals, groups and peoples or cultures are subject to the same Darwinian laws of natural selection as are plants and animals. The theory holds that "superior" individuals or groups survived and succeeded while the inferior disappeared, with a consequent benefit to society, and that the existing order must be the natural one. Any individual, group or institution that survives the struggle to exist over a long period of time is regarded as having displayed evidence for its own "natural" superiority and legitimacy, similar to the Darwinian concept of "survival of the fittest". In history, this theory has been questioned because it could be easily used to justify political conservatism, imperialism, and racism.
选项
答案 社会达尔文主义者普遍宣称(认为)，正如动、植物一样，个人、团体、民族或文化同样受制于达尔文的“自然选择、优胜劣汰”的法则。该理论认为，优越的个体或团体会存活下来并得以传承，而卑劣的个体或团体就会消失，其结果是有益于整体社会，也就是说，现存的秩序也一定是大自然的秩序。任何一个在生存竞争中幸存了较长一段时间的个人、团体和机构都会被认为他们展现了自己的自然优势与遗传优势，这正类似达尔文主义“适者生存”的进化论观点。纵览历史(过去)，该理论一直受到质疑。因为它容易被用来使政治保守主义、帝国主义、种族主义合情合理。
