How Science is Like Democracy by Lee Smolin

Physicist Lee Smolin compares the scientific community's function to democracy. He explains that scientists "fight and argue as hard as we can," yet accept that the next generation will ultimately decide what is correct.

Smolin argues this process mirrors how democracy operates. More of his lectures are available on his website.
