Evidence-based Sentencing and the Scientific Rationalization of Discrimination
This Article critiques, on legal and empirical grounds, the growing trend of basing criminal sentences on actuarial recidivism risk prediction instruments that include demographic and socioeconomic variables. I argue that this practice violates the Equal Protection Clause and is bad policy: an explicit embrace of otherwise-condemned discrimination, sanitized by scientific language. To demonstra...

متن کاملRationalization and Incomplete Information∗
We analyze a family of extensive-form solution procedures for games with incomplete information that do not require the specification of an epistemic type space à la Harsanyi, but can accommodate a (commonly known) collection of explicit restrictions ∆ on first-order beliefs. For any fixed ∆ we obtain a solution called ∆-rationalizability. In static games, ∆-rationalizability characterizes the ...
متن کاملAffect, Rationalization, and Motivation
Unreflective cognitive processes — or mere information processing — takes place in ‘the space of causes’ while reflection occurs, instead, in the ‘space of reasons’. This characterization, of course, nicely encapsulates the perspectival shift I have been focusing on. Unreflective processes are naturally viewed from a third-person perspective, and so we see them in mechanistic terms: inhabitants...
متن کاملCategorifying Rationalization
We solve a problem proposed by Khovanov by constructing, for any set of primes S, a triangulated category (in fact a stable∞-category) whose Grothendieck group is S−1Z. More generally, for any exact∞-category E, we construct an exact∞-category S−1E of equivariant sheaves on the Cantor space with respect to an action of a dense subgroup of the circle. We show that this∞-category is precisely the...
