The book "Structural Rationality and Other Essays on Practical Reason" by Julian Nida-Rümelin offers an in-depth analysis of the theory of rational choice and critiques the limitations of the consequentialist approach. The author argues that the common understanding of rational action is insufficient to capture the complexity of human behavior. He suggests that the unity of practical reason can be maintained even without consequentialist approaches. Through a critical examination of standard models of action theory, the book opens new perspectives on rationality and emphasizes the diversity of motivations that shape human actions. Nida-Rümelin encourages readers to think beyond the narrow confines of instrumental rationality and to consider the social roles and preferences that influence our actions. These insights are particularly valuable for readers engaging with philosophical questions about rationality and ethics.
