Economics

economics as a discipline has no special claim to understanding the nature of individual behavior; presumably psychologists and cognitive scientists have much more to say about it. The stock in trade of economics, rather, is its understanding of the _aggregate outcome_ of individual behavior—or more precisely, of the 'unintended consequence of intended actions.' For that purpose, we are not obliged to assume individual behavior; we may ask what it actually is." [ So far only traced to Northanger, 5 ]
