Conceptions of Social Rule
Files
Description
Now comes the chapter by Kornhauser that begins with the distinction of three senses of “rule” anticipated early in the book as a point of departure for the book as a whole and then for departure immediately into the explication and application of “rule” in the third of Kornhauser's senses—the sense appropriate to the issue-processing perspective. In his paper, Kornhauser moves on from the distinction to treat rules as devices created to seize game-theoretical opportunities for benefits from social cooperation; and argues that this sort of treatment should be extended to many more cases than hitherto have been brought under it
