The Problem with Experts in the Post-Truth Era

Calum Nicholson, visiting fellow at the Danube Institute discusses a recent paper on the topic of experts and technocracy in society. He explains how the practice of putting all of our faith in scientific experts has turned out to be a disaster in the era of COVID, because those in power vastly overestimate their own abilities and are willing to apply their expertise in ways that are both shortsighted and tyrannical. We can either view the resulting loss of confidence in experts with dismay, or as an opportunity to realize that no one, however intelligent, has enough knowledge to run society from the top down.

As the president of Free the People, Kibbe has decades of experience in the libertarian political sphere, but in these troubled times he believes that open dialogue is needed to bring people together. This means being willing to talk, and especially listen, to those with whom we might not always agree, trying to understand perspectives that might otherwise be foreign to us. Kibbe on Liberty's growing roster of guests includes politicians, economists, comedians, writers, radio personalities, activists, journalists, and even a magician or two—with topics of conversation ranging from current affairs to craft beer and the Grateful Dead. So grab a cold one, and settle in for the next hour of Kibbe on Liberty, mostly honest conversations with mostly interesting people.
