Individual autonomy and public deliberation in behavioral public policy - Humanities and Social Sciences Communications https://buff.ly/3ZTSyV1
"The article explores epistemic, normative, and psychological challenges of autonomy as self-constitution and suggests that public deliberation in mini-publics could mitigate some of these challenges."
The most successful concept in behavioral public policy (BPP) is nudging, which involves altering choice architecture to leverage people’s biases and heuristics to promote welfare-improving behaviors. However, in recent years, nudging has faced criticism. This article addresses a specific critique: while nudges may enhance welfare, they often fail to promote autonomy. Several authors have raised this concern, yet there is no unified definition of autonomy in BPP. This article delves into the various meanings of autonomy in the BPP literature: freedom of choice, agency, and self-constitution. It focuses on autonomy as self-constitution, which acknowledges instrumental rationality but also considers substantive rationality, i.e., people’s ability to reason about their goals, aspirations, and identities. The article explores epistemic, normative, and psychological challenges of autonomy as self-constitution and suggests that public deliberation in mini-publics could mitigate some of these challenges. Moreover, it emphasizes that an autonomy-centric BPP should shift its focus from reframing individual choice situations (i-frame interventions) to enabling public deliberation about institutional choices (s-frame interventions).

So @neurothing is taking a break and it's late Thursday here, but I felt inspired to do a #ThursdayFiveList
Call it #TheCommunity songs about being with the people with whom you've chosen to undertake the struggle.
My five in the next post.
mastodon instance where everyone is required to pretend to be #FlippTodd.
you are suspended if #TheCommunity deems your pfp and demeanor insufficiently recognizable as Flipp.
Hey #Metatext, we, the people of Mastodon, we are in need of the edit feature in the iOS app
