Join Phil Filippak for the next episode of a series about critical rationalism and major ideas from David Deutsch’s book The Beginning of Infinity. We’ll discuss rationality and democracy!
Critical rationalism and a properly built democracy have more in common than one can guess at first sight. Better voting systems are a product of knowledge creation, only constrained by rigorous mathematical laws. We will discuss Arrow’s theorem and how it shapes the landscape for democracies, and will ponder on how new, better systems are created.
