Intentionality and rationality

Dagfinn Føllesdal

pp. 109-125

Abstract

In this paper, I shall discuss the notions of intentionality and rationality and their bearing on the human studies. I will start with brief analyses of the two notions and the relation between them. I will then concentrate on rationality and devote a substantial part of the paper to the role rationality plays in human studies. Finally, I will discuss the exact status that rationality assumptions should be given in the methodology of the human studies.
