Methodological individualism (MI) posits that all social phenomena can be explained by individual actions and motivations. But does this perspective truly offer a comprehensive understanding of complex collective behaviors? This video delves into the limitations and strengths of MI in explaining how groups act.
In this video, we explore:
► The foundational principles of methodological individualism and its application in social science.
► How individual actions contribute to, but may not fully determine, emergent group dynamics.
► The challenges MI faces in accounting for structural factors, cultural norms, and collective consciousness.
► Alternative sociological perspectives that complement or challenge methodological individualism.
► Why a multi-level approach might be necessary to grasp the full complexity of collective behavior.
