The general human behaviour is based on three kinds of drivers: a biological driver, a social a-cultural driver, and a social-cultural driver. The first has as a vehicle the gene, the second – the meme, and the third – the seme. The paper examines, in a logical way, this trinity of human behaviour drivers, putting into evidence the analogies as well as the differences among them. One of the key points in the analysis is, of course, the inherent interferences among the three vehicles, aimed at providing a complete map of the human (both as an individual and social group) behaviour. In fact, the paper intends to suggest a re-construction of the praxiological model of the rationality of the human, by integrating the behaviourism with the institutionalism.
