The Journal of Social and Evolutionary Systems was a quarterly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering the intersection of biology and sociology.[1] It was established in 1978 as the Journal of Social and Biological Structures by James Danielli and Harvey Wheeler, who served as its founding editors-in-chief; they were later joined by Robert Rosen.[2] Wheeler remained a co-editor-in-chief of the journal until 1995.[3]
The journal was originally published by Academic Press until 1990, when it was acquired by JAI Press. Also in 1990, Paul Levinson became the journal's new editor-in-chief. In 1992, Levinson changed its title to the Journal of Social and Evolutionary Systems in 1992.[4] The journal ceased publication in 1998.
