In a recent essay, I wrote the following words:
"Institutions would integrate superpositional thinking I think in part by being less bureaucratic. Instead of delegating everything to rules and regulations, give people doing the work some flexibility to try to do the right thing. They can turn out to be wrong, but local decision making is likely going to be more beneficial than universal decision making."
So this article aligns deeply with that, and I like how it's constructed.
Modernism (which still permeates much of what we have left in our world) thinks it can find the perfect objective standards for anything and everything. Postmodernism (which eats away at our civilization) tries to tear down things by proving they are imperfect, and it is typically pointed at things the current bureaucratic powers want gone, not things such as bureaucracy itself. Postmodernism tears down culture which can tell people they're wrong without a rule to tell them so, and it makes everything relative so nobody's really to blame for anything ever so of course postmodern bureaucracy doesn't want to hold anyone responsible for their mistakes (and that doesn't mean firing everyone at the first sign of trouble)
A new way of thinking needs to happen that allows for the fact that things aren't always the same and leaders need responsibility and power to go with their title so they can wisely execute their function as leaders.
