Ep24: Counter Abstraction
Manage episode 224160868 series 2417742
Ascribing human qualities to abstractions, like society and the resulting yet illogical social contract theory, opens the door to corruption and abuse.
Countering these fallacies with the Precision Model of thinking demands specificity and affords greater understanding to everyone involved.
The evolution of law, justice, and governance also requires greater precision, specificity, and explicit terms for contracted security.
