Slightly Educated
I talk with Emily Dotson, who is the current coordinator of student conduct at ASU, about restorative justice. We talk about the costs and benefits of the system, and how it differs from a punitive one, along with some first hand descriptions of restorative justice's success. We also talk about how restorative justice punishes differently than punitive systems.
talk with international studies student Barak Austin about imperialism in broad and specific cases. What about it was good, and what was bad? The main topic is when and how other nations have precedence to intervene in other nations with sanctions, war, or some form of cultural change.
I talk with Howard Cromwell who is a neuro scientist at BGSU in Ohio. Howard is well versed in the ways in which dopamine shape our incentives and allow us to progress through an environment of rewards. We talk about the basics of rewards, as well as complications in gambling addiction and drug addiction.
