Basic Ethnocentrism Model

Axelrod & Hammond's (2003) model showing how in-group favoritism evolves from arbitrary markers. Agents have color tags (blue/red/green/yellow) and two genes: cooperate-with-same and cooperate-with-different. Ethnocentrics (cooperate with same color only) dominate through spatial clustering.
