Altruism (1): pro-social behavior, personality trait and as an emerging and urgent. Amnesty

speak of social consciousness that the world of bloggers is in front of it and no wonder, because we should be, need be, if we make a difference to raise our level of evolution as a species. That or our purpose. In our hands is the choice. And the changes are made from small to big.

We have that power. Unámosnos then.

should we review some points. What Altruism? What does it mean to have a pro-social attitude? What are the altruistic personality traits that makes some people at some point have a heroic?

Emile Durkheim argued always remember, that altruism exists in every society, every time the individual subject-interest pro-social.

Researchers have devoted years of effort and study as a result of one of the genocide more systematic large history when reason and facts indicated that the worst of human beings had appeared, Prof. Dr. Samuel Oliner Holocaust survivor himself Jewish, wanted to demonstrate to future generations could still believe in mankind, yet despite or perhaps precisely because there was also sordid and incomprehensible in that period of our history, people with a heroic, beyond all reason, risking his life and his family, acted and helped save thousands of lives.

There were many anonymous and in different degrees for safety reasons or simply left no testimony was impossible, but those non-Jews that if they left they were recognized and honored the State of Israel as " " The Righteous among the Nations " (The Righteous Among the Nations) in Yad Vashem , the Holocaust Museum located in Jerusalem, Israel.

Samuel Oliner, in 1942 taking 12 years Bobowa escaped the ghetto in Poland where his family was transported and exterminated. Today is the father of three children and is Professor Emeritus of Sociology at Humboldt State University of California. In 1982 he created the Institute for Personality altruistic and pro-social behavior "in the same University, where Prof. Dr Pearl Oliner is investigating. Together they wrote the book" The Altruistic Personality "1986.

Como Samuel Oliner mismo lo expresa: “La intención es que este estudio contribuyera a la promoción de una sociedad más comprometida con el prójimo y más pacífica. Desde una perspectiva socio-psicológica en la que se asume a la conducta como el resultado de la interacción entre factores personales (valores), externos sociales y situacionales”, sus estudios se basaron en el análisis de unas 700 de entrevistas, cuestionarios, tablas, etc.( 406 salvadores, 126 no salvadores y 150 salvados). La condición sine qua nom: el salvador tenía que estar motivado por consideraciones hummanitarias unicamente, hacerlo por propia voluntad, haber puesto en riesgo his own life and received no compensation, 95% recognized at Yad Va Shem, 5% recognized by the own saved.

The authors conclude that the fact that these people saved to other human beings had to do with a constitution of character, rather than chance. Here are the features found:
