This concept is applicable both in biology and in psychology, sociology, anthropology and philosophy. The opposite concept is  selfishness. It is also (usually) aligned with leftism. In general, this term expresses the interest shown in the well-being, both in the sense of survival and in the quality of life, of members of one's own species or even of other species. This is usually seen as a clearly positive quality, because it indirectly improves one's chances of survival and well-being. When applied to humans it is considered a moral quality.
