Abstract

This essay explores how Kahneman contributed to debates in project studies. I revisit three debates: Flyvbjerg vs. Hirschman on (over-)optimism, Kahneman vs. Klein on the trustworthiness of intuitive expertise, and Kahneman vs. Gigerenzer on nudging vs. boosting. These discussions illuminate four attributes of insightful debates: addressing practical challenges, confronting epistemological boundaries, building on rigorous research, and owning its ethical standpoint. Ultimately, Kahneman’s legacy inspires scholars in project studies to critically engage, challenge assumptions, and embrace debates as spaces of ethical and reflexive academic practice.

点燃火焰：Kahneman作为项目研究中创造性张力的来源

这篇文章探讨了卡尼曼如何为项目研究中的辩论做出贡献。我回顾了三场辩论：Flyvbjerg vs. Hirschman关于（过度）乐观主义，Kahneman vs. Klein关于直觉专业知识的可信度，Kahneman vs. Gigerenzer关于推动vs.推动。这些讨论阐明了有洞察力的辩论的四个属性：解决实际挑战，面对认识论边界，建立在严谨的研究基础上，并拥有其伦理立场。最终，卡尼曼的遗产激励项目研究的学者批判性地参与，挑战假设，并将辩论作为道德和反思性学术实践的空间。
