Rational Choice

Hindmoor, Andrew

9781403934215 - Rational Choice
2e hands

Artikelomschrijving

The emergence and development of rational choice theory has polarized political science - particularly in the United States, where it has come to dominate much of the subject's research agenda. Its enthusiastic advocates argue that it has revolutionized the study of politics as an academic discipline by setting it on a new scientific basis. Its opponents argue that its success marks a triumph of technical style over explanatory substance and makes a series of implausible assumptions about the reasons why people behave in particular ways, thus offering deeply flawed explanations of why particular events occur.
