in “what is political philosophy” leo strauss objected to the use of quantitative methods of political science research, that such efforts are doomed to fail because 1) it’s impossible to sudy social phenomena without making value judgements 2) attempting to do so corrupts the ability to make judgements 3) the belief in superiority of scientific knowledge deprecates all pre scientific knowledge and 4) positivism in the study of social phenomena invariably leads to historicism dissolving into a nihilism whereby nothing can be known. how would you respond to strauss objection in order to rehabilitate empirical and quantitative methods of political research?
