From ideas to action?

How to read discussions

Statements: Reports do not act.

Resolution: Mikko's suggestion accepted and figure changed accordingly.

(Resolved, i.e., the resolution has been updated to the main page.)

Argumentation:

Nice and explanatory diagram, but there is an important point that should probably be corrected/emphasized: reports and conclusions do not act! The actions influenced by reports and conclusions are taken by humans or other agents capable of understanding what is communicated by the reports and conclusions. Now the diagram could be interpreted so that pure ideas are translatable into actions straightforwardly as such without agency, interpretation and the influence of social practices. This is not what is intended, so the possibility of such misinterpretation should be avoided. --Mikko Pohjola 07:48, 14 May 2011 (EEST)
