Today's post, Cynicism in Ev-Psych (and Econ?) was originally published on 11 February 2009. A summary (taken from the LW wiki):

 

Evolutionary Psychology and Microeconomics seem to develop different types of cynical theories, and are cynical about different things.

Discuss the post here (rather than in the comments to the original post).

This post is part of the Rerunning the Sequences series, where we'll be going through Eliezer Yudkowsky's old posts in order so that people who are interested can (re-)read and discuss them. The previous post was Informers and Persuaders, and you can use the sequence_reruns tag or rss feed to follow the rest of the series.

Sequence reruns are a community-driven effort. You can participate by re-reading the sequence post, discussing it here, posting the next day's sequence reruns post, or summarizing forthcoming articles on the wiki. Go here for more details, or to have meta discussions about the Rerunning the Sequences series.
