Evidenzbasierte Forschung – die Irrelevanz des Manipulationsverdachts

Author

Abstract

On the occasion of the 80th birthday of Hayek‘s “The Road to Serfdom“, Veronika Grimm, Stefan Kolev and Jens Weidmann have drawn attention to the core messages of the book. In doing so, they relativise the accusation of ideology levelled at the book by instead being suspicious of the manipulation by evidence-based research as it may potentially contain hidden normative statements. This relativisation attempt is contradicted in the following article.
