What is Special about Natural Drift as an Organism- Centered View of Evolution

Jorge Mpodozis presents natural drift as an organism-centered view of biological evolution. Currently, many other research programs in biol-ogy and philosophy of biology pursue organismic perspectives in evolution. We consider some of the features appear-ing in the article in this light in order to highlight what is special in Mpodozis's proposal. We contend that collabora-tions among research programs would be valuable and suggest that the major contribution of natural drift for organis-mic projects lies in its dynamic organiza-tional features.
