Reproductive Skew
In double-checking what I had stated about "kinship muting/masking" in social insects in the comments of the previous post, I stumble upon this site, Reproductive skew: An introduction to a central theory of biology. From the FAQ:
This is premised on animal models, though if you go further down in the FAQ the site acknowledges its debt to W.D. Hamilton, who did not shy away from implications of kin selection for human beings. The site is not complete, but the reference list has a bibliography of research in this area. Additionally, in case you didn't notice, many researchers have PDF copies of their papers on their web sites.
