Challenging the foundations of rational choice analysis, this volume critiques its premise that social life is solely shaped by individual rational decisions. The author, Barry Hindess, highlights the significance of non-human actors and the overlooked deliberative processes influencing decisions. Through a thorough exploration of the concepts of agency and rationality, the book presents a compelling argument that questions the validity of rational choice theories, making it essential reading for those engaged in political science, sociology, and philosophy.
