| dc.description.abstract | An ancient desire of human beings has
been to manage the future by fixing ends and
means and calculating the best allocation of the
later into the former. The earliest testimony of
this ambition is expressed in Plato’s dialogue
Protagoras. He looks for a procedure of choice
that would save us from the contingency of
“luck”. Aristotle then realized that uses and
routines are means that help to consolidate a
predictable tendency (see, e.g., Nicomachean
Ethics VII, 10, 1152a 26-7). Social pressure,
laws and organizations produce predictable
behaviours. All these means ar e usually
considered or gathered under the label of
“institutions” in a broad sense. | en_US |
