Episode 38: UTOKing with Zak Stein (2) December 6, 2021
Title: Making Consilient Choices
In Episode 38, Gregg welcomes back Dr. Zak Stein (see
Episode 8). Well-known in the
metamodern space, Zak is educational philosopher and author of many well-known articles and essays, and the book
Education
in a Time Between Worlds: Essays on the Future of Schools, Technology, and Society. He is also a contributor to the
Consilience Project,
where among other things he has taken a lead role on a powerful four-part series of essays on propaganda and the current social media environment (see
here,
here,
here, and
here).
This conversation reviews Zak's analysis of education, propaganda and the concept of undue influence, and syncs it up with UTOK's frame, especially regarding the dynamics of justification, investment, influence and the nature of thought control.
