I need information on indigenous religions and their influence on property (family property) and how such properties are used.
Question
  • Jun 2017
Among the Asante of Ghana, family property is considered as one that belongs to the living (in the material world) and the dead (ancestors who live in the spiritual world). It serves as social security for the family. Money, a house or land are examples. Because of the spiritual (ancestral) connection, such properties are not disposable. Land for example, is not supposed to be sold. Money lent to a family member has to be refunded before s/he dies.

Why is it that findings of social sciences are not considered in politics and economy?
Question
  • Dec 2015
Nobel laureates such as Elinor Ostrom, Amartya Sen and Joseph Stiglitz share with us the same dilemma: non of our findings are considered in politics and economy.
Countries such as the US, Russia and many other states still spend half of their public budget on war, prisons, "security" and police.
The transaction costs reach trillions of Dollars
They do not provide justice and peace to their citizens and neighbors.
Why does e.g. America not listen to it's best scientists?
Some answers to discuss:
  1. The scientists don't communicate their results in a way they can be used
  2. The results of the scientists can not be adapted by the society
  3. The findings of the scientists are overestimated and do not contribute to real problem solutions
  4. The scientists are paid for providing no solutions
  5. The leaders are science averse.
  6. The scientists do not appear in the media

Question
  • Mar 2013
