Answer:

Social Darwinism refers to various theories that emerged in Western Europe and North America in the 1870s that applied biological concepts of natural selection and survival of the fittest to sociology, economics, and politics.

Also, the theory that individuals, groups, and peoples are subject to the same Darwinian laws of natural selection as plants and animals. Now largely discredited, social Darwinism was advocated by Herbert Spencer and others in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and was used to justify political conservatism, imperialism, and racism and to discourage intervention and reform.

The correct answer is: "integrity vs despair"

The question is refered to Erickson's steps of psychosocial development. This theory appoints that each stage in life poses a challenge. Two opposing forces act over the person, who has to be able to resolve the trade-off, by adopting the positive force (integrity, in this case) and discarding the negative one (despair), in order to sucessfully advance in the development of his/her psychosocial personality. The sucessful fulfilment of one step enables to reach the next step.  

This period in a person's life, after 65 years old, means the beginning of the last stage of psychosocial development in which the person, for the first time, experiences a sense of mortality. Reaching integrity means accepting oneshelf and living in peace the way towards death, which is felt with proximity at this point in life.
