A note on participatory decision-making and rationality
探讨参与式决策如何通过激发规范引导的行为来提高生产力,区分了理性选择与规范引导两种行为模式,并指出参与式结构比层级制更有利于规范行为的发挥。
This paper addresses a particular issue of institutional choice. It is concerned with one aspect of the argument for participatory decision-making structures: how to make sense of the claim that participation can raise productivity because it produces a change in motivation. The argument of the paper turns, first, on distinguishing between the rational choice account of behaviour and a norm-guided one and, second, on the thought that participatory structures give scope for norm-guided behaviour to flourish in ways not found in hierarchies.
