Sean Carroll's Mindscape: Science, Society, Philosophy, Culture, Arts, and Ideas
287 | Jean-Paul Faguet on Institutions and the Legacy of History
Sean Carroll
We think we each have experience growing up in whatever country we grew up in. When you talk about the successes of government or of other social institutions, it's too easy to generalize from an n equals one kind of data set, right? You know your experience, and you want to— go from that to theorize about how things must be more generally. But science isn't like that.
