Scientocracy is a government system which advocates public policy based off the opinions of scientists and experts. It is distinct from Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Technocracy, which is the rule of scientists and experts.

Beliefs

Scientocracy is the belief in a government of the people, but informed by scientists. This does not entail that scientists will run the country directly, but rather that political leaders will be informed by scientists. Scientocrats believe this will end the constant arguing over decisions that politicians so often have and will speed up progress and decision-making since all politicians would then be informed with what, based off scientific, analytical knowledge, would be the best steps to take.

History

Florence Caddy wrote a book titled Through the fields with Linnaeus: a chapter in Swedish history. Published two volumes in 1887. In these two sentences she uses "society of the scientocracy" and "scientocrats" to refer to groups of eminent scientists of that time.

In 1933, Hugo Gernsback defined Scientocracy as "the direction of the country and its resources by Scientists and not by Technicians" However Scientocracy faded to obscurity in modern days, due to the rising popularity of Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Technocracy

Personality

He is very inelegant and nerdy, sometimes he acts mean, but it's mostly to other Polcompballs that don't understand science. He is the stereotypical scientist or geeky kid at school. He likes to put research into things.

How to Draw

  1. Draw a ball,
  2. Color the ball white (#FFFFFF),
  3. Draw a blue (#00FFFF) fluid,
  4. Draw outline of a laboratory flask,
  5. Draw eyes and you're done!
