We believe there should be an university that is solely dedicated to the in-depth exploration of “thinking”.
Earlier we wrote about the faculties that are housed in the West Wing. At the West Wing, scientists and students dissect the basic thinking patterns in a scientific discipline. The people working there are not trained as philosophers, but will use systematic and deliberate creative thinking techniques to disrupt standard thinking in the sciences and plan alternative thinking approaches for those sciences. F.i. they will design alternative approaches to law as was invented by Napoleon. The basic concept of Napoleon’s ” Code Civil des Francais” was aimed at protection of the interests of the state, not at those of the victims.
In the East Wing, scientists and students will study the thinking strategies of the world’s most creative, most critical and/or most profound thinkers at the moment. They will re-engineer, or reverse engineer their thinking, in order to learn ways how to think.
We wrote earlier about Reverse Engineering for Thinking Strategies, in which we argued that by studying great thinkers we would be able to derive good thinking procedures. It is not about what they think – mostly controversional – but about the steps they moved along before reaching their conclusions. For example, Chomsky gives good thinking methods for investigating double standards in foreign policies, regardless you share his conclusions.
In the East Wing, the scientists and students will explore “the process of discovering the technological principles of thinking through analysis of its structure, function, and operation”.
Who will be the subjects of study- the world’s most critical, creative or profound thinkers? The research staff will decide on that, but a short internet search gives enough candidates. Look for example at the sites of
- Edge,
- the Reasoning Lab,
- The Most Creative Thinkers of the Year,
- Top Thinkers Ranking,
- Leading Global Thinkers,
- Ted Talks,
- The World’s Greatest Minds,
- The CNN 10 Thinkers,
- Critical Thinkers through History,
and last but not least

31 quotes by Noam Chomsky will cause you to rethink society, politics and the human life
By Justin BrownDecember 28, 2016
Have you ever heard of Noam Chomsky?
If you haven’t, you may be surprised to discover that he was the most cited living person in the Arts and Humanities Citation Index between 1980 and 1992. He was just behind famed psychiatrist Sigmund Freud and just ahead of philosopher Georg Hegel.
Chomsky created a groundbreaking theory in linguistics in the 1950s and since the 1960s has been one of the world’s foremost critics of American foreign policy. So why have so few people heard of him? The answer is simple. His theories on politics challenge mainstream thought and he frequently criticizes the actions of the US government and mainstream media. It would be unusual for mainstream media to continually quote Chomsky when he’s so critical of how they function.
Below is a selection of some of his most piercing quotes on society, politics and the human life. If you enjoy this, then check out our interview with him on the challenges and achievements of humanity.
