Preemption

Ralph Pettman ()

Chapter Chapter 9 in On Politicking, 2025, pp 131-147 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The eighth way people practice politicking is preemption. This means getting in first, and it applies across the board. One form is particularly important, which is the preemption done by science itself. This said, a number of rationalists are trying now to preempt these preemptors by highlighting several problems with their project. These include those that arise from the assumptions rationalists make, the biases languages create, the consequences that anthropocentricity causes, and the influences that our drives, emotions, intuitions, and spiritual inspirations can have.
