Abstract
In recent years, there have been calls for government to behave more like
science, for example, by conducting trials or by learning from
experiments. But we can also learn from history. In his inaugural lecture,
Professor Jon Agar considers how the post-war history of the United
Kingdom can be understood as an Œexperimental stateš.
