Öz

İktisatta
kullanılan metaforların esası mekanik fizik kaynaklıdır. Bununla birlikte,
iktisadın biyolojik metaforlar kullanması gerektiği de giderek önem
kazanmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, iktisat literatüründe biyolojik temelli olarak
tartışılan meselelerden birisi de rasyonalitedir. Bu makalede, anaakım
iktisadın çekirdek varsayımlarından olan rasyonalitenin biyolojinin bulguları bağlamında
tartışılması amaçlanmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Metaforlar, mekanik fizik, biyoloji, rasyonellik
