To Fix the Social Sciences, Look to the “Dark Ages” of Medicine
For those interested in this, take a look at the work regarding &quot;grievance studies&quot; by Peter Boghossian, James Lindsay, and Helen Pluckrose. They made intentionally unscientific studies with the intent of publication, and actually got themselves published on a few of their works. The objective was to demonstrate that not only does academia in the social sciences operate according to a completely different standard than the hard sciences, but is so ideologically driven that they behave in much the same way as a religion might.
