Redefining Sciences in Urban Planning and Economics

Urban planning and economics are like biological life forms and should be studied using a specialized kind of science called 'the problem of organized complexity.' This unique scientific approach, outlined in chapter 22 of 'Death in Life' and the Warren Weaver report, should be fundamental in education. Students need to understand and differentiate between the reductive, statistical, and biological sciences. The speaker proposes reinventing urban planning as a biological science and advocates for a similar approach in economics, which has been overlooked despite offering a potential paradigm shift.
