Anthropogenic Evolution — The Third Driver of Evolutionary Change

This paper proposes Anthropogenic Evolution as a third driver of evolutionary change, distinct from natural selection and random genetic mutation, defined as the directed modification of evolutionary trajectories through human cultural, technological, and ideological agency. Version 2 extends the original framework to challenge Gause's competitive exclusion principle and MacArthur's niche theory as applied to intraspecies status competition; analyse the replacement of Darwinian reproductive fitness with a manufactured achievement directive; and examine the 2020 inflection point as an acceleration event visible in gene expression dysregulation at the population level.
