situational logic  

Definición

  • This entry introduces the notion of situational logic or logic of situation in its most prominent form and explains its importance in social-scientific explanation of action and agency. Situational analysis is a simplification of Max Weber's claim that one kind of social action—”instrumental rationality”—could be explained by the aims, means, and expectations of the actors.
