(The Failure of) The Armchair Theorist

Too often, we spend too much time theorizing from the armchair, making assumptions about how the world works. And when we spend too much time in the comforts of the armchair, we neglect the essential work of observation. In this short video, we explore the pitfalls of the armchair theorist and how we can best make sense of the world. Many of the ideas explored intersect with the fields of behavioral science, behavioral economics, and decision science. Examples referenced include Isabel Wilkerson's The Warmth of Other Suns, Robert Caro and his biography of Robert Moses, and Michel de Montaigne. The idea for this video was sparked an interview with the decision science legend Herbert Simon entitled 'The Failure of Armchair Economics."
