Official Statistics—A Plaything of Politics?: On the Interaction of Politics, Official Statistics, and Ethical Principles

Official Statistics—A Plaything of Politics?: On the Interaction of Politics, Official Statistics, and Ethical Principles by Reimund Mink
English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 394 Pages | ISBN : 3031046234 | 42 MB

This book describes official statistics as a tool to hold up a mirror to society – but also as an instrument for those who can manipulate this mirror. It addresses the precarious interaction of politics, official statistics, and ethical principles. Three sets of themes can be derived from this relationship, which are the focus of this book: Political systems and guiding principles, official statistics as a science of the state, and ethical issues arising from them. Ultimately, the determining factor is the political system that exists in each case.

Fisher, Neyman, and the Creation of Classical Statistics

Fisher, Neyman, and the Creation of Classical Statistics by Erich L. Lehmann
English | PDF,EPUB | 2011 | 123 Pages | ISBN : 1441994998 | 2.8 MB

Classical statistical theory—hypothesis testing, estimation, and the design of experiments and sample surveys—is mainly the creation of two men: Ronald A. Fisher (1890-1962) and Jerzy Neyman (1894-1981). Their contributions sometimes complemented each other, sometimes occurred in parallel, and, particularly at later stages, often were in strong opposition. The two men would not be pleased to see their names linked in this way, since throughout most of their working lives they detested each other. Nevertheless, they worked on the same problems, and through their combined efforts created a new discipline.
