It explores the implications for this approach to understanding in biology, economics, psychology and political science. Presenting a comprehensive overview of philosophical topics in the social sciences, the book emphasizes how all human cognition and behavior is characterized by functionality and complexity, and thus cannot be explained by the point predictions and exact laws found in the physical sciences. Realms of functional complexity – such as the market order in economics, the social rules of conduct, and the human CNS – require a focus on explanations of the principles involved rather than predicting exact outcomes. This requires study of the historical context to understand behavior and cognition. This approach notes that functional complexity is central to classical liberal ideas such as division of labour and knowledge, and how this is a far more powerfuland adequate account of social organization than central planning. Through comparison of these approaches, as well as its interdisciplinary scope, this book will interest both academics and students i | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | evolutionary epistemology; complexity theory; behaviorism; Austrian subjectivism; rationalist constructi | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-17173-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-17175-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-17173-4Series ISSN 2662-6470 Series E-ISSN 2662-6489 | issn_series | 2662-6470 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
