- Title
Better Spent Elsewhere: Why Philosophy Should Be Funded Less.
- Authors
LICON, JIMMY ALFONSO
- Abstract
The article focuses on questioning the value of donating money to academic philosophy departments, arguing that such donations may not be a wise use of finite financial resources. It explores the notion that funding academic philosophy could potentially support marginal philosophers producing low-quality work or draw away high-quality philosophers from more productive endeavors, raising concerns about the overall impact and effectiveness of such donations.
