Doing homework for a Government And Politics A Level and this was very useful. I think Oakeshott is a really interesting philosopher.

[@stjohnspipecasts6801]

Yes he is. Very civilised and clear thinking. Such qualities we need today

[@paypointdigitalexperience2373]

I am looking forward new podcast.

[@JuanDEstevez]

Great "pipecast"! As someone new to Oakeshott, this was quite helpful. Thanks! PS. Some interesting parallels between F.A. Hayek, Michael Polanyi and Oakeshott...

[@stjohnspipecasts6801]

Thank you very much. Yes I can see your point about Hayek with notions of a spontaneous order not planned by anyone - though Oakeshott was quite critical of the Road to Serfdom as an example of dogmatic programmatic thinking.

[@penssuck6453]

@@stjohnspipecasts6801 Where might I find such criticism? Thank you for this video, by the way, for this series in general.

[@robgilbert3395]

That's some serious pipe smoking. Thanks - doing a comparative study of Oakeshott and Strauss and Hobbes.

[@stjohnspipecasts6801]

Thank you for taking the trouble to write. I hope your study is going well!

[@alexanderweber288]

This pipecast demonstrates in a gentle and refined way how utterly dictatorial our present political culture has become. (It reminds me in some way of the Aristotelian term of 'phronesis', i. e. judgements should be made in the light of practical experience and individually from case to case, not generally and according to first principles)

[@stjohnspipecasts6801]

Thank you for your comment. Opinion has definitely come to displace practical experience in most of life. I suspect that too many people now live distanced from the discipline of practical skill and instead specialise in having emotive opinions about things.

The first five minutes consists of a series a trivial truths.

[@jimmyfaulkner1855]

I’m new to studying political philosophy and I have a question for you. The question is what do you think is the right method for answering the big questions in political philosophy?

[@power4monster]

[@power4monster]

The narrator is attributing his own opinions to Oakeshott's, as is evident in his comments on carbon pricing.
