Pro-Sociality, self organization and Nudge theory It seems that Nudge Theory is getting a little bit of a bad rep due to the UK's appeal/deference to it in their aborted "herd immunity" strategy... and while it may have been misapplied or presumed to be "enough" when it was patently not, I don't think that negates the value of distributed intelligence/action and the implications for collective self-organization for the greater good.
I was not aware of "Nudging" as a formal thing until last Autumn as I was prepping for Merle's meeting in Stockholm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nudge_theory I'm a (over?)zealous believer in self-organized, distributed solutions to problems, so as always, "a grain of salt"... https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/how_can_we_cooperate_when_the_pandemic_is_driving_us_apart https://blog.scielo.org/en/2020/03/31/mental-health-why-it-still-matters-in-the-midst-of-a-pandemic-originally-published-in-braz-j-psychiatry/#.Xoi_pdNKit8 ..-. . . -.. / - .... . / -- --- .-. .-.. --- -.-. -.- ... / . .-.. --- ..
