Synopsis
These essays use a common interpretive framework to show how economic and other concepts are socially constructed, how political philosophers and the workings of democracy can be understood, and how rational choice theories might be given wider application and greater discriminatory power. Aaron Wildavsky hoped that fellow social scientists would be persuaded of the unifying and integrating potential of what Mary Douglas called |grid-group theory| (which he further developed as |cultural theory|) by seeing this explanatory tool used in so many different ways and with regard to such a variety of issues and questions.
