Résumé :	This paper, in a transdisciplinary approach, draws together concepts and evidence from biological, anthropological, paleoecological, historical, political and economic research and presents a comprehensive theory to explain past, present and future evolution of the anthroposystem in terms of natural sciences and system theory. Cultural evolution, history of mankind and even the ecologically unsustainable performance of people are seen as the continuation and part of biological evolution of a species that was and still is an integral part of a holarchical subsystem, the earth 's ecosystem. Things that are often treated as purely cultural in humans 'have deep roots in our animal past and thus are quite likely to rest on direct genetic foundations ' . Additionally, we are convinced of the need that 'the basis for any natural law describing the evolution of social systems must be the physical laws governing open systems, i.e. systems embedded in their environment with which they exchange matter and energy ' . This might be a trivial statement for many modern anthropologists and many natural scientists but it is far from being part of general knowledge and education.
