Abstract: We discuss how the diverse nature of aggression and cooperation can be understood if we focus our attention on where aggression reaches a compromise with non-aggression and/or cooperation in response to the relatedness between interactors. First we address whether Hamiltons rule explains the variation in male-to-male aggressiveness. Next we show that the variation in aggression and cooperation known in males of social spider mites (Saito, Evolution 49:413–417, 1995) can be explained by the change in relatedness (i.e. inclusive fitness) and effect of cooperative defence (synergistic effect). Then we learn that there is a sufficient condition of cooperation, which is determined primarily by two factors: the relatedness and synergistic effect of males. Furthermore, we expect that there is a condition where the aggression between males varies, depending upon how close the values of relatedness are to those of the sufficient condition of cooperation.
