Resist the technocrats – Through international organisations, they wield power under the pretence of simply following the experts. Don’t believe them – International organisations are often described as spaces where diplomatic exchange enables agreement on how to tackle shared problems. To best understand and solve a given problem – an emerging public health hazard, the potential risks of a new technology, the acceptable threshold for military intervention – the staff of international organisations recruit experts, whether virologists, economists or lawyers. This is where the trouble begins: who counts as a recognised expert? Which areas of specialisation are considered relevant for which problem? And based on what criteria do they get selected: their university degrees? Citation count? Media engagements? Prior contributions in a similar capacity? – The UN’s legitimacy can hardly hinge on endlessly repeating the mantra of expert impartiality – International organisations invented a technocratic international that was not unlike a gated community –> https://aeon.co/essays/are-we-witnessing-the-end-of-the-technocra...
