I'm an avid reader of Daniel Little's website. He is a brilliant and massively erudite writer. Just quickly: I would want to challenge some of Professor Little's methodological commitments on the basis of 1. Kaushik Basu's recent critque of methodogical individualism 2. Bowles and Gintis' recent work on the cooperative species 3. Chrisofakis' critiques of individualism and the stability of preferences on the basis of the recent sociology of networks (see his co-written book Connected) 4. even Karl Popper's old argument for the autonomy of sociology vis-a-vis psychology in the Open Society book Lot to think through here, but I'm at old computer, and about to talk a long walk with family in the mountains.
