Article abstract
Ethology sprang from post-Darwinian biology, but the methodology and theoretical concepts that it has developed are now of interest of several of the human sciences. Initially confronted with strong opposition from experimental psychology, the etnológica! approach gradually asserted its authority and has thrown new light on the origin and function of behavior patterns. Its
application has been particularly profitable in the analysis of social interaction and social structure among animalu. Ethology has made an important contribution to the study of man, but the possibility of a strictly human ethology is as yet uncertain.
