It seems to me that we have a surprisingly large community in NZ and AU. Do you have any ideas as to why that might be?
Also, I have long been interested in understanding the differences in social epistemology between what seem like unusually well governed developed nations like NZ and other developed nations. I'd really like to hear from you regarding such issues. You can reach me at michael.vassar@gmail.com
I've heard from people who know academic philosophy that the trends in Australia and New Zealand are very different from the rest of the world.
The funny thing is, one night my (American) friends and I had an informal discussion about what country in the world was least likely to become a dictatorship. We decided it had to be New Zealand or maybe Australia. I'm not sure that we knew enough to be good judges, but it somehow made sense.
I had a similar opinion before meeting an Australian politician and getting a tour of the Queensland parliament.
