About This Talk
Barry Schwartz faz um apelo entusiasmado à "sabedoria prática" como um antídoto a uma sociedade enlouquecida com a burocracia. Ele argumenta de forma veemente que as regras muitas vezes nos falham, incentivos podem se tornar tiros que saem pela culatra, e que a sabedora prática nos ajudará a reconstruir o mundo.
