As I make my way through Christian Müller-Kademann’s Uncertainty and Economics some clarity is emerging. His book provides a more concise vocabulary for expressing what I was already intuiting and had seen expressed by Lars, Fullbrook, Marques, etc. Christian does a service by dealing with the concept of complexity in the larger framework of human uncertainty.

• being human implies the rule of uncertainty?
• emotions - against popular belief - are essential for rational decision making?
• rational economists rationally choose irrational methods / models such as DSGE modelling?
• standard rationality tests are bound to fail?
• uncertainty helps explain the nature of money?
• econometrics can be used to prove the existence of uncertainty?
