Adventures in Ethics and Science: Hierarchy, meritocracy, the blogosphere, and the real world.

sennoma — Mon, 09 Apr 2007 11:51:00 -0400

Acknowledging the hierarchy -- and the power you wield as someone near the top of it -- is in tension with maintaining the claim that you got to your position near the top purely on the merits. If you acknowledge that some of you success had to do with help you may have gotten (of a sort that you are not inclined to give to others -- 'cause if they're good enough, they don't need your help), or that some of it may have been luck, then you can't take your esteemed position as conclusive evidence that you're really that good. Indeed, you might be in a position where you'd have to acknowledge that others who may be just as good as you (or better) are out there and unrecognized. You might have to come to grips with the idea that you cannot indefinitely defend you position at the top, at least not on the basis of your merit alone. Tagged by sennoma under postdocproblem,
