The Popperian Podcast #36 – James Kierstead – ‘Education for Science and Democracy’

This episode of the Popperian Podcast features an interview that Jed Lea-Henry conducted with James Kierstead. They speak about James’ most recent article ‘Education for science and democracy’  (https://www.elgaronline.com/downloadpdf/edcollchap/book/9781802208542/book-part-9781802208542-7.pdf), as well as falsification as a criterion of empirical science, how universal statements are falsifiable but existential ones aren't, how Popper later moved away from this strictly logical idea to place more emphasis on degrees of falsifiability and on fallibilism as an attitude or social practice, and the challenges of institutionalising these ideas within science, society and curricula. James Kierstead is a Research Fellow at the New Zealand Initiative. Together with Michael Johnston he co-hosts Free Kiwis!, a podcast dedicated to issues to do with freedom and free speech in a New Zealand context. He tweets @Kleisthenes2 *** Education for science and democracy https://www.elgaronline.com/downloadpdf/edcollchap/book/9781802208542/book-part-9781802208542-7.pdf *** Free Kiwis!
