नीतियां बनाते वक़्त, ये समझना ज़रूरी होता है कि लोग कैसे सोचते हैं और कैसे अपना व्यवहार तय करते हैं, तभी कामयाब और फायदेमंद नीतियां बन पाएंगी। लेकिन, क्या नीति बनाने वाले ये मान लें कि लोग अक्सर अतार्किक फैसले लेते हैं या ये कि लोग ज़्यादातर विवेकशील होते हैं? आखिर, ऐसी मान्यताओं के आधार पर कैसी नीतियां बनेंगी? आइये, करते हैं आज इसी पर चर्चा।
In the realm of policymaking, understanding human behavior is crucial for crafting effective and impactful solutions. However, a central debate revolves around whether policymakers should assume humans are inherently rational or irrational beings. What kind of policies will such assumptions lead to?
