31: The Tyranny of Materialism with Cody Moser


Listen Later

Cody Moser is an anthropologist and PhD candidate studying cultural evolution in the department of cognitive and information sciences at University of California Merced.

We talk about science and scientism, famed molecular biologist Rupert Sheldrake, his theory of Morphic Resonance, and what he calls the 10 tenets that make up the ideology of scientific materialism, asking whether evolution has a telos, how to reboot scientific exploration through patronage, tolerating cranks and free inquiry, and barriers to growth & innovation, not only in science, but in institutions more broadly.


Agora Politics is a podcast dedicated to making sense out of our outdated theories of politics.
