Isn't methodological individualism - the determination to formulate explanations in economics in terms of individuals - just altogether beside the point when economists don't even know what individuals are? Don Ross argues in Economic Theory and Cognitive Science that human selves are not economic agents, as most economists think, but are rather communities of many subpersonal agents engaged in evolutionary games who interact in evolutionary games with other human selves communities of many subpersonal agents engaged in evolutionary games. Phil Mirowski argues in Machine Dreams that the economic individual is a cybernetic organism without detectable interface between computational machine and human qualities or between real and simulacra. I argue in Theory of the Individual in Economics that the utility function offers a circular and empty basis for the concept of the individual and that economists have never solved the multiple selves problem. So how could one be a methodological individualist? Methodological about what? John Davis
