Professor Ostrom of the University of California at Los Angeles suggests answers to the questions: Why law, why decisions? To introduce order and predictability into groups, to pursue goals. Expanding social science enhances the range of instrumental choices for the decision-maker but naturally introduces an ever-greater dependence upon administrative science. Science and "politics" thus tend to grow closer together
