Induction vs Deduction.
Grounded theory is probabilistically correct. Deduction if correct, is actual reality.
Don't get me wrong, I want to love induction, I have William James of Pragmatism on my wall... but the problems with induction hurt me to my core. I know deduction has problems too, but the Platonic Realist in me loves the idea of magic truths.
It’s really tough.
I suspect that the 21st-century will continue to show better and more evidence for “mess” being the right cognitive container (or just garbage can à la James March). I don’t think induction will win but deduction will require more epicycles.
