Abstract

We argue in favour of identifying one aspect of rational choice with the tendency to conform to the choice you expect another like-minded, but non-communicating, agent to make and study this idea in the very basic case where the choice is from a non-empty subset \$K\$ of \$2\^A\$ and no further structure or knowledge of \$A\$ is assumed. KEYWORDS: Rationality; Common Sense; Coordination Games; Uncertainty; Principle of Charity; Social Choice Theory; Reasons.
