I didn't know that. Makes perfect sense now.
About ethics. There was a great post outlining a kind of attempt to boil morality or ethics down to a kind of Hegelian Dialectic, but can't remember if that SN or Nostr where I was reading it.
If something is not a physical science, I guess you mean a social science?
I can't help feel that social sciences are really what were known as humanities.
Just in the same way the Human Resource used to be known as personnel.
Yeah, I understand the renaming bit. Praxeology is quite a different method of investigation from the experimental physical sciences. In humanities, you cannot treat a variable and see the same results every time because you are dealing with people that change from moment to moment.

It's something I only heard about recently. Appreciate the explanation.
It'd be good if The Guardian wrote about the praxeology of the middle class, and how that ties into behavioural economics. Or referred to an overview of chemical physics and geological timescales to explain the perils of Christmas traditions and other quixotic, environmental health campaigns that Maoist thought leaders in the UK would like to enforce.
*Oh, Merry Christmas!
