  • In this paper, we study Social Reputation as a fundamental mechanism in the diffusion and possibly evolution of socially desirable behaviour (e.g., cooperation, altruism, norm-abiding behaviour). Reputation is seen as both a property of agents and a process of transmission of beliefs about this property. Similar to reputation, also culture is both an effect and a cause of behaviour and, before, of mental states and processes, in a multidirectional process of emergence. The main current views and hypotheses about reputation are found to underestimate the process of transmission. The effects of two different errors in reputation transmission (inclusive, or courtesy, and exclusive, or calumny), checked by means of simulation, showed that, apart from the fact that accurate information is always to be preferred, the spreading of calumny is favoured, and it can be limited only by effective spreading of accurate information. We argue that some of the lessons learned can be extended to culture in general. The first is that modeling social artefacts, including culture, without modeling in some measure the mind as a vehicle for their formation, modification and spreading is too limited as a position and easily risks to jump to the wrong conclusions. To describe culture, or a part of it, we need to describe also the mind. The second is that even if a science of the mind is still far away from being established as something settled, this should not restrain the scientist from using its advances while describing culture. Indeed, even the simplest models of the mind can give hints in the description of cultural phenomena - as we have shown for the case of reputation. (literal)
