TL;DR
There exists no alternative to the core Darwinian principles of variation, selection and inheritance to explain the evolution of complex evolving population systems.

A new and more robust evolutionary synthesis is emerging that attempts to explain macroevolution as well as microevolutionary events, and the morphogenetic field is seen as a major unit of ontogeny whose changes bring about changes in evolution.

Robert J. Richards argues that the current tendency to see evolution as a process that is not progressive and not teleological imposes perspectives on Darwin that incorrectly deny the clearly progressive heart of his embryological models and his evolutionary theory.

A general account of selection is set out to see how well it accommodates these very different sorts of selection, which can generate complexity and novelty primarily because they are so wasteful and inefficient.
Journal of Theoretical BiologyThe nature of selection
247 Citations1995George Price
A model that unifies all types of selection (chemical, sociological, genetical, and every other kind of selection) may open the way to develop a general "Mathematical Theory of Selection" analogous to communication theory.

The potential fruitfulness of research to find other theory types and construct their abstractions is suggested, because it provides a useful tool for analyzing the nature of other selection theories and may be of use in new instances of theory construction.

151 Citations2006Geoffrey M. Hodgson, Thorbjørn Knudsen
It is concluded that the Lamarckian label does not readily transfer to socio-economic evolution, despite the fact that social genotypes may adapt within any given phenotype (such as an organisation), and no such problems exist with the description of socio- economic evolution as Darwinian.

Simple models of epigenetic inheritance in asexual and sexual organisms show that in populations of asexual unicellular organisms, the distinctive properties of induced epigenetic variations mean that the variations may be retained for many generations after the inducing stimulus is removed, even in the absence of selection.

105 Citations1996Bruce H. Weber, David Depew
The relationship between, chance, self-organization, and selection as sources of order in biological systems are explored to suggest that natural selection may be grounded in physical law more deeply than is allowed by advocates of the autonomy of biology, while still making it possible to deny that evolutionary explanations can be modeled in terms of a deductive relationship between laws and cases.

An alternative to this latently normative orientation is to interprete economics as a theory of human social behavior in the context of what are usually considered economic activities, namely production, accumulation, distribution, exchange, and consumption.

15 Citations1998Paul H. Rubin, E. Somanathan
It is argued that humans may be selected for flexibility across generations, so that more honest societies will induce parents to train children to avoid defection, thus leading to a further increase in the proportion of honest persons in the society.
