Scientocracy is an ideology that advocates for government and public policy based on scientific evidence and/or 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.

Variants

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Newtonism

Newtonism is based so much on the scientific, political, religious and philosophical views of Sir Isaac Newton. The main reason Newton is known is for the formulation of the theory of gravity along with the law of universal gravitation, in which all particles and bodies attract each other in a reciprocal way, with the same intensity, which would soon explain the movement of the solar system, with the sun attracting the planets and the earth attracting the moon and the bodies around it, even if the moon also attracts the earth, only in the opposite direction. Stating that "the forces which hold the planets in their orbs must (be) reciprocally as the squares of their distances from the centers around which they revolve". Color theory was responsible, with a prism that separates the white color into colors of the visible spectrum. He also created the 3 laws of motion, which are:

  1. A body remains at rest, or in motion with constant velocity in a straight line, unless acted upon by a force.
  2. When a body is acted upon by a force, the time rate of change of its momentum is equal to the force.
  3. If two bodies exert forces on each other, these forces have the same intensity, but opposite directions.

The other views would be his participation in the Enlightenment movement, classical liberalism and the view of the Whig party (free trade), Aristotelian philosophical thoughts, strong Christian influence and opposition to atheism.

WIP

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Hawkingism

Hawkingism is another form of scientocracy that represents the political views of the British scientist Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Stephen Hawking. He was Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination liberal socialist and Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination environmentalist. He also got sick with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
He criticized Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination monarchy and Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination capitalism because he thought that capitalism is the worst enemy of earth's population and that capitalism makes a lot of modern problems and wars.
Hawking represented the silent generation and 60s leftists. He died in 2018 and is respected by many people.

Beliefs

Scientocracy is the belief in a government based on science. 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 about what, based on 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. He can be portrayed as a non-scientist, as you don't need to be a scientist to be a scientocrats. He can also be a sadistic torturer that will literally murder anyone for innovation.
