In this interview, Gerd Gigerenzer place bounded rationality into the context of a larger development in thinking about what rationality is. He touches on unbounded rationality which remains overrepresented and popular in neoclassical economics, he explains different interpretations of bounded rationality and concludes with an ecological interpretation of rationality. He explains that according to ecological rationality, the best method of rationalizing (for example a heuristic shortcut versus a computational optimation) would depend on three considerations: (1)The person making the choice; (2) their culture; and (3) the type of world the choice is made in. Gigerenzer’s final remark talks about the need to flesh rationality out by using the above considerations to look at how a person or culture's adaptive tools on rationality will change over time and to design tools that experts can use to make better decisions.

Comment from our editors:

Gigerenzer’s explanation shows just how pluralist the concept of rationality has become, spanning neoclassical, behavioral and ecological economics. It represents pluralism as it shows that a certain approach to rationality has a purpose in a certain situation and fails in others. Gigerenzer's explanation also hints at the idea that fleshing rationality out further will require insights from anthropology.

Das Interdisziplinäre Studentische Kolloquium (ISK) an der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin Anja Breljak, Felix Kersting, Klaas Miersch, Timo Stieglitz und Iris Wohnsiedler VS Springer The MINE website explores the interplay between nature and economy. Focusing on such fundamental concepts as time, thermodynamics, evolution, homo politicus and justice, a new outline of economic activity emerges within nature. The dominant approach of Mainstream Economics, which considers nature as a subsystem of the economy, is thus replaced by a broader and more integrated framework. The visual map and its links between concepts provides an orientation. The visitor can approach the content from their own starting point and follow their own path to discovery. Each concept starts with the historical background and moves on through theory and practice. The research behind MINE began in the 1970s at the University of Heidelberg, Germany, in an interdisciplinary group spearheaded by Professor Malte Faber, including scientists from economics to mathematics, physics and philosophy. The research has contributed to the field of Ecological Economics. MINE is directed at students, scientists and decion-makers.
