We consider here the problem of the preeminence of
the Darwinian model of evolution in the face of growing and
persistent evidence that biological systems (from microbiology
to ecosystems) exhibit many behaviours that do not fit neatly
into Darwin’s explanation, and which are currently classified
as “periphery” (almost epiphenomena); it is the old problem
of the central dogma, writ large. Authors from Shapiro to
Cornwallis to Laland have provided some of the evidence
that more is going on than simple reproduction, (undirected)
variation, and selection, and have suggested that it is now time
to build an “extended evolutionary synthesis”, with Sultan
even suggesting that the extensions should be brought into
the centre of the new model. Our contribution is to build the
beginning of such a model, lean in biological detail, but rich in
evolutionary (algorithmic) mechanisms that can explain more
properly how systems evolve.
