| The other problem with cultural codes in a meritocracy |
| 2017-07-13 |
| h/t Instapundit ...There is a flip side to this argument, however. It is not just that social codes and mores can act as a barrier to upward mobility by some. It is also possible that some people successfully enter the meritocracy through the mastery of these codes rather than mastery of any substantive set of skills. And that's how we have professors of physics who believe in AGW, professors of history who believe white men invented slavery, or professors of biomathematics who know neither biology nor mathematics. Never mind pols or journos. |
