Abstract

To think that a planning problem can be formulated as a process of rational decision-making is a methodological hypothesis that regained strength halfway through the 1900s in an era of great expectations regarding the social application of new strategic choice technologies. However, this hypothesis was based on some specific premises regarding the interests involved and the dominant form of rationality in the decision-making processes and may have had some foundations only in somewhat restrictive contextual conditions.
