Managing Philosophy: Effectiveness and Efficiency in Philosophical Argumentation
Written by Henrique Schneider
“Philosophical arguments should be evaluated not only by their logical soundness but also by whether they address the right questions. Efficiency — constructing rigorous, clear arguments — matters, but it is secondary to effectiveness — choosing problems of genuine significance. A logically flawless argument about a trivial question remains a poor use of intellectual resources.”
