«La política de los chimpancés» is Frans de Waal's essay on ethology, published by Alianza in paperback (336 pages, in Spanish).
The book narrates the life of a chimpanzee colony at Arnhem Zoo and analyzes their power struggles, alliances, manipulation strategies, sexual rivalries, and reconciliations. Frans de Waal argues that these behaviors reflect human politics and that their roots predate humanity.
The 1993 edition includes a foreword by Desmond Morris and is part of the El Libro de Bolsillo collection.
For readers interested in biology, psychology, and political science, and in the biological bases of power.
