A contribuição singular de Simon e sua repercussão teórica relevante
Abstract
Esse trabalho pretende mostrar a relevância e a abrangência da contribuição pontual de Herbert A. Simon, na medida em que suas idéias serviram de fundamento para o desenvolvimento de diversas correntes teóricas fora do mainstream. Serão destacadas, nesse quadro, muito sucintamente, exemplos na teoria pós-keynesiana e na teoria da economia do custo de transação. O artigo faz uma breve releitura da forma interessante como a contribuição de Simon passou a ser importante para os pilares de teorias com ramificações analíticas bem diferentes, assim como destaca significativas rupturas na ortodoxia causadas por essa fundamentação metodológica, trazendo inesperadamente novas faces ao debate entre escolas de pensamento divergentes.
Palavras-chave: Racionalidade limitada. Economia do custo de transação. Expectativas racionais.
