Virtue Signaling: Essays on Darwinian Politics and Free Speech by Geoffrey Miller
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2.18 MB
Overview: ‘Virtue signaling’ is the phrase that got popular on social media during the 2016 election as a way of derogating political opponents. But what is virtue signaling, really? How does it work, where does it come from, and is it really a bad thing? How can it help people to virtue signaling better — when you’re doing it, and when your friends, family, colleagues, and mates are doing it?
This short, thoughtful, easy-to-read book is about how we can better understand people’s instincts to show off our moral virtues, personality traits, ideologies, political attitudes, and lifestyle choices through our public behavior and language, from dating to street protests to social media to academic censorship. It shows how virtue signaling is the key to understanding current debates about free speech and viewpoint diversity on campuses, in corporations, and throughout society.
