IN WHICH POCKET IS OCCAM'S RAZOR?

Hrvoje Lorković ; Sveučilište Ulm, Ulm

Sažetak

The author rejects Štulhofer's criticism of the authors article in DI
8 but takes up the discussion on epistemological problems of
ethnopsychology. The roots of these he finds in the ambiguity of
the term "rational", meaning "thoughttrough" and "advantageous".
Self-deception, as an effect of unconscious cognitive filters,
though deficient in thought, may be advantageous. To circumvent
the dilemma, notions like "quasi-rational" and "meta-rational" are
proposed. Distorted self- and other-judgment may occur in whole
nations, sometimes in form of exaggerated self-criticism. Some
examples of feasible quantitative investigations of such
phenomena are given.
