The Substance of Poetic Procedure
There are elective affinities between poetic expression and legal thought. Well-turned verse can do something more than delight the ear or express emotions. It can also depict social reality in a particularly compelling, value-laden way. Similarly, the lawyer is not simply a technical expert on the drafting or application of rules. Long experience at such work should give a sense of the ultimate function, purpose, and meaning of such rules. Each …
Professional Judgment in an Era of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
Though artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare and education now accomplishes diverse tasks, there are two features that tend to unite the information processing behind efforts to substitute it for professionals in these fields: reductionism and functionalism. True believers in substitutive automation tend to model work in human services by reducing the professional role to a set of behaviors initiated by some stimulus, which are intended to a…
The Nonreligious
There are now more nonreligious people than ever before. The number of secular men and women has dramatically increased over the past several decades in Europe, the United States, Japan, and elsewhere.

That one can know the streets and shops, avenues and alleys, while also going days without being recognized. But as elites fill cities with “smart” technologies — turning them into platforms for the “Internet of Things” (IoT): sensors and computation embedded within physical objects that then connect, communicate, and/or tr…
Atheism and the Secularization Thesis
An Assessment of the Role of Early Parental Loss in the Adoption of Atheism or Irreligion
Early parental loss or trauma has been proposed by some as a significant factor in the adoption of atheist, non-theist, or irreligious worldviews. Relevant empirical data, however, have been limited, impressionistic, methodologically questionable, or limited to historically prominent figures. Survey data from the GSS and a study of affirmatively non-theistic and irreligious secular group affiliates in the U.S. do not provide evidence of dispropor…
