Cine ești tu ca să-mi spui mie ce să fac? Despre politicieni și experți
Who are you to tell me what to do? On politicians and experts

Summary/Abstract: Starting from a text by Sir Bertrand Russell, the paper looks into the division of roles between the politicians (i.e. the representative of popular wishes) and the experts (i.e. the holders of scientific knowledge). While neither could be able to set a workable framework for organizing the society by itself, a combination between the two could hold the key of a successful constitution. Based on this finding, the paper suggests that a good set of rules could be developed by politicians (who aggregate people’s desires) based on the scientific findings of the experts (who hold the tools to explain and implement new rules).
