Daniel Kahneman, while known for his work with Amos Tversky in the 1970s on judgment and decision-making, hopes that part of his scientific legacy will be the practice of adversarial collaboration, which he initiated in 2001.

Introduced as "a substitute for the format of critique-reply-rejoinder in which debates are currently conducted in the social sciences," Kahneman championed adversarial collaboration as "a good-faith effort to conduct debates by carrying out joint research."

He notes that the flowering of adversarial collaborations in various scientific disciplines is an indication that we are at the beginnings of a radical change in the way that science is done in psychology and other disciplines. "And," he says, "it's a major improvement."
