Experience Trumps Facts
David Goodhart argues that too much subjectivism is contributing to a less mature political conversation.
In the week where his appointment to the Equality and Human Rights Commission has come in for criticism, David Goodhart defends objective facts over personal experience.
"Our knowledge of the world is usually some sort of balance between personal experience and abstract ideas," he writes. "But the focus on the primacy of subjective experience....can go too far."
