Abstract: | In economics decision-making is traditionally seen as an intentional calculation process (Moser, 1990, 2) The basic concept is that the decision-maker has to choose between a set of alternative actions according to his or her preferences. Usually a great deal of (scientific) work is devoted to the development of tools that rationalise this process and affirm rational choice. This approach refers to a concept of rationality that is assumed to fit all decision-makers in all situations. |
