CHAPTER

Citation Trends and Academic Shifts

This chapter explores the declining citation patterns of historical philosophers, particularly around the years 2018 and 2019, raising questions about potential biases in academic reporting. It examines the 'peak woke hypothesis' and its impact on which thinkers are being cited, as well as the shifting interest in humanities versus technical fields among students. The discussion also reflects on the implications of the replication crisis in psychology and how these trends relate to broader societal attitudes toward academic disciplines.
