Private Truths, Public Lies Book by Timur Kuran (Farsi)

Description

Private Truths, Public Lies by Timur Kuran explores the phenomenon of preference falsification, where individuals hide their true beliefs or desires in public due to social, political, or economic pressures. Drawing on examples from politics, economics, and culture, Kuran shows how this gap between private convictions and public behavior can shape revolutions, policy outcomes, and market dynamics. The book reveals why seemingly stable societies can experience sudden upheaval, how public opinion can mislead observers, and why economic and social incentives influence honesty and conformity. Combining theory with real-world case studies, it provides a compelling analysis of human behavior in social contexts.
