I guess that's why he wrote an article in 2016 titled "The problem with our government is democracy". lol. Clown.

Je veux le traduit en français

Wonderful lecture. I hate that this channel has less than 10k subscribers. Please keep going anyway.

It is really amazing that the organisers of this event could not get the technology to work properly.

expected more granular and innovative solution from a Nobel laureate

Ich wohne immer noch in der gleichen Gemeinde, wo ich vor 45 Jahren auf die Welt kam. Dazwischen war ich über 10 Jahre im Ausland und habe in verschiedenen Ländern gelebt und gearbeitet. Die wirtschaftlichen Aspekte wurden ja im Video bereits besprochen, also beschränke ich mich auf alles Andere. Die Zuwanderung aus Nachbarländern war ok, auch wenn damit eine Verbetonisierung und "Verstopfung" einherging. Man kann es Dichtestress nennen. Die Einwanderung aus muslimischen und afrikanischen, insbesondere nordafrikanischen Ländern, hat der Gesellschaft geschadet, hat diese gespalten und verroht. Die Zukunft sieht sehr düster aus, sind letztgenannten Regionen genau diese, welche in den kommenden Jahrzehnten am schnellsten wachsen werden und zu den ärmsten gehören.

I find the breast cancer example, to be problematic and possibly artificial and oversimplified. In particular, it must be assumed that all women are tested for breast cancer. So, exactly what "test" is he talking about (or why does he not say so)? Pinker seems to have used this example over a long period of time.

If people do not think "the system" is working for them, then they are going to be susceptible to false reasoning. In terms of confidence in the future beyond the short term, the relatively recent awareness of the relatively recent phenomenon of the global nature of man-made crises and limited resources is not taken into account.

As it appears he was reading from his notes, it probably would have been easier just to post his notes.

Problem is you have plenty of migrants disguised as refugees.

Heterogeneous countries have a more complex democratic representation, requiring greater autonomy in state divisions (or cantons, as in Switzerland). Hence, a Upper House with equal representation of these divisions is necessary. It makes no sense for a bicameral parliament if the Upper House simply replicates the population representation of the Lower House. The points the professor suggests reforms are: a) Senate with population representation, b) Direct and majority presidential election, c) Terms for Supreme Court members. These suggestions perfectly coincide in areas where the Democratic Party has suffered major defeats, seeming like a partisan analysis. I'm from Brazil, and it's interesting to note that the "Tropical Trump" (the politician the professor criticizes heavily and rightly so) would completely agree with you on points a) and c). In summary, there's nothing wrong with the Upper House representing states equally (as in the USA or Brazil) or cantons (as in Switzerland). The foundational mistake of the USA lies in the choice of presidentialism. As a Latin American, I implore American politicians to reconsider this. In your research for the book "How Democracies Die," it was surprising to observe the historical episodes demonstrating the fragility of American democracy. Unfortunately, all of Latin America sought inspiration from the US model and adopted presidentialism. The reality is that we have the most fragile democracies, teetering on the edge, facing an uphill battle, jumping from one populist leader to another. How beneficial it would be if the United States and Brazil were to emulate the Swiss political model, wherein: a) the National Council truly adheres to population representation in the Lower House (in Brazil, for example, 1 voter from Roraima is equivalent to 10 voters from São Paulo); b) the Council of States respects autonomy and equally represents the internal divisions of the country; c) the Federal Council is designed for harmony among parties, fostering democratic cooperation; d) there are terms for members of the highest federal judiciary body, which also respects the autonomy of the internal divisions of the country.

"PromoSM"

obnoxious music instead of reading the text was a great touch

August 24, 1980 on Parris Island SC, US I fell from a 3 story balcony and incurred TBI. Specifically nonspecific white matter on my left occipital and a poorly diminished right mastoid. The language instinct has helped me a great deal 🌔🪐💫🥀😅

Rationality tells me If he wrote the book he does not need the slides, though they help. This was more like the speakers who stands on the stage and reads the slide deck.

Wise words!

CLEAN ENERGY WILL BECOME CHEAPER WHEN OIL AND GAS ARE EXHAUSTED OR ALMOST EXHAUSTED AND THE PRICE GOES UP.

If you cut out the problems with the remote clicker, this was a 17 minute talk.

Incompetent support staff is endemic in universities too.

Steven Pinker, I think, should realize that the term 'rationality' is something which grows out of literacy, or at the very least is accentuated through a literate society. When literacy disappears, as it obviously is within our electronic, iconic based environment - then, all bets are off. We will continue to see institutions, the legal framework, educational systems, etc., all begin to take an inward turn - cracks in the armour. Pinker needs to take a more rigorous approach in exploring the effects of changes to our communication technologies, and how they are affecting all facets of society.

Piniker talks about the real need in academia to return to a less politically tinged environemnt and to more rigorous pursuits in academia. Then he gives this talk, and his illustrations of various rational and logical arguments are all politically tinged. Does academia need to hunker in their insulative bubbles and constantly reinforce the political correctness that is currently destroying the public trust of their institutions?

European values should be updated to include truthfulness and honesty. The constant lying is undermining its value and legitimacy.

Where is the evidence of Russias hidden invasion of Ukraine that Vaira mentioned? I have heard this many times. But never seen evidence.

Hillary Boo! 😂😂 Savage

Why the democrats are doing so poorly, is the same as asking like why covid is so unpopular among the 80+ generation.

Er hat schweren Schaden in Europa hinterlassen. Da fällt es schwer. Merkel konnte einiges abwenden.

11:45 - Starts here 51:37 to 1:00:20 - reform beginning with rational argument (with cool examples).

I'm not hearing anything about exponential growth, but I didn't listen to everything. There are no solutions in the light of exponential growth.

Excellent lecture by Pinker. The only thing I disagreed with is that he lumped fasting In the category of “quack cures”. There is now a rather large body of evidence on the health benefits of fasting.

We can send probes to Pluto, but we can't make a clicker work!!!!

Herta Müller öffnet mir das Herz, weil sie so wahrhaftig und unermüdlich an das erinnert, was es auf keinen Fall zu vergessen gilt. Weil es uns alle angeht. Danke dafür, dass so eine hochrenommierte Gästin eingeladen wurde.

11:19 - Der ehemalige Präsident und heutige Vize-Vorsitzende des Sicherheitsrats Dmitrij Medwedew hat die russische Sicht auf Europas Zivilisation bloßgelegt, als er den Balten und letztlich allen Europäern zurief: «Dass ihr in Freiheit seid, ist nicht Euer Verdienst, sondern unser Versäumnis.»

Man soll über Tote nichts SCHLECHTES sagen, aber mir fällt nichts GUTES ein...

Einer der letzten Garde ist gestorben . Leider. Mögen sich deutsche Politiker der Aufgabe bewusst sein in welche Fußstapfen sie treten. Ruhen sie in Frieden Herr Schäuble 😢😢😢

Excellent , a level of analysis and realism which is never heard here in Ireland on our mainstream media.

👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎

Möge er in Frieden Ruhen ❤

Dr. Pinker is a very experienced lecturer. As said in The States, “this ain’t his first rodeo”. He probably forgot all about the tech issues quickly, but remembered the kind people. ❤

Moin guter Politiker tapferer Mann möge er in Frieden ruhen amen

Teile nicht immer seine Analyse, in Bezug auf Gaza, aber hier im Inneren weiss ich, dass dr. Schäuble ein überzeugter und integriert Mensch ist.. Mein Respekt hat er immer..

Mit "vollständig souverän gewordene BRD" (min 10:22) widerspricht er seiner Aussage von 2011 beim Banking Kongress "zu keiner Zeit voll souverän". Ein Punkt von vielen, der die Glaubwürdigkeit und Aufrichtigkeit des Herrn Spendenaffaire aufzeigt.

Jetzt ist er tot.

Großartiger Vortrag, danke dass Sie ihn online lassen. Ruhe in Frieden, Herr Dr. Wolfgang Schäuble. Speziell Karlsruhe wird Sie vermissen.
