Yosuke Horikoshi (Project Assistant Professor, University of Tokyo / Philosophical Dialogue) and Hikaru Kashida (Digital Agency / Data Analysis). Two individuals with different areas of expertise discuss various things in the world that cannot be neatly categorized as either black or white – the "in-between." By exploring questions from the perspective of the "space between" various things, they generate unpredictable chemical reactions and offer new insights to listeners. Please enjoy the crosstalk of these two individuals as they seek "just right."
In this main episode, they extensively discuss the "in-between," covering topics such as: "Is having explicit rules always a good thing?", "We want room for interpretation and freedom," "Information asymmetry between management and employees and rules," "Strong individuals seek freedom," "Systems and rules exist to protect the weak," and "What would happen if we created a libertarian city?" Please be sure to listen during your commute, or in the gaps between work or household chores.
