Priceless
—“Universities may see themselves as bastions of knowledge and intellectualism, but they have long since forfeited this role. Instead, they have become repositories for theories long since discarded in the region and which bear little resemblance to reality today. The more professors prioritise theory over fact, the more they will condemn themselves to irrelevance. Unfortunately, when policymakers embrace blindly their untested conventional wisdom, the consequences can be far worse.”—–
I could not have done this work in the Academy. It wouldn’t have been possible. You can’t really assemble degree in this kind of philosophy, this kind of economics, this kind of politics.
The system is the problem.
