Abstract
In this paper I discuss evidence that traditional, consequentialist models of decision making are inadequate to account for human decision making. The alternative model that I explore derives from March's idea that decision p rocesses involve perceptions of appropriateness, identity, and rule-based c hoice. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
