Abstract

While studying Peasant Ractionality, one comes across to problems which mostly relate to Instrumental Rationality. This article explores such problems, and analyses those (few) approaches to Instrumental Rationality that defy the Maximization thesis. Then, some clues for the understanding of Peassant Rationality are provided.
