Was “the Unready” actually the smartest king in the room? 🤔
New in Rationality & Society: Brandt & Svendesn show that Ethelred’s Danegeld payments were mathematically optimal — not weakness, not appeasement. A calculated equilibrium.

Beyond Rationality?
Rationality is the central assumption of economics. That makes work that challenges that assumption interesting to economists for at least two reasons. One is that we might be wrong; rationality might not be the best way of predicting and explaining human behavior. The other is that such work might expand our understanding of how it is rational to behave. My favorite example of both is

Choose the foundation confirmed by logic and history.
Building on God's kingdom isn't about risk management or playing it safe—it's about recognizing that every other foundation eventually fails, and the only rational choice is the one foundation that history proves cannot fall.

Is #morality "rational"?
Even "broad" #RationalChoice theory doesn't fully resolve a paradox: Cheating can be seen as rational, but following a "Never lie" norm can’t 🤔
Palacio-Vera offers a way out: Reconsidering what’s rational and combining theoretical frameworks.
