Sociotechnocanonicon/2019 Planning: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 22:58, 11 April 2019

This space is for adding ideas for the 2019 Sociotechnocanonicon.

Credit would be easy to offer. People that need/want credit can take it for credits. Folks that don't need it can do it without. I've been in reading groups were some (but not all) people took it for credit and thought the dynamic was great. —mako ๛

Are there other canonical texts we're not getting to?
- What about Marx, Weber, Durkheim?
- Adam Smith, Darwin, Foucault?
- Aristotle, Hobbes, Mill?

All of these are possible to get from other places including in any number of social theory courses offered at UW. I think I'd have a preference for doing something closer to specifics of what we study but that still has very broad appeal. Olson's wikipedia:The Logic of Collective Action, Marwell and Oliver's The Critical Mass in Collective Action, and/or Axelrod's wikipedia:The Evolution of Cooperation. A more controversial suggestion would be Kropotkin's wikipedia:Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution —mako ๛

I'm not familiar with any of these but they do seem pretty appealing based on their descriptions, and I'll keep my eye out for opportunities to sojourn into less-adjacent canons from the broader UW. Kaylea (talk) 01:27, 16 March 2019 (EDT)

- Maybe this is too close to the wrong canon, but I keep running into Coleman and Schelling and would like to do a more comprehensive read.Kaylea (talk) 18:58, 11 April 2019 (EDT)
