Resumo: The article explains that the behavioral and cognitive characteristicsassumed about the economic agents – in general by New Institutional Economyand particularly by the Transaction Cost Economics - bounded rationality andopportunism – even so they mean a considerable advance in terms of approach when compared with the parameters assumed by the traditional neoclassicaltheory, still as a program that uses the comparative static analysis – and notdynamic of the processes and evolution for the construction of its main results.In this direction, the text argues that the use of procedural rationality and mentalmodels could add to the economic agent some characteristics – such as creativityand learning – basic to become the explanations more dynamic and consistentwith the complex reality.

Nesse sentido, o texto argumenta que ouso da racionalidade do procedimento e dos modelos mentais poderiam acrescentarao agente econômico várias características – tais como criatividade eaprendizado – fundamentais para tornar as explicações mais dinâmicas econsistentes com a realidade complexa.UFPR2008-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufpr.br/economia/article/view/845910.5380/re.v34i3.8459Revista de Economia; v. 34, n. 3 (2008)2316-93970556-578210.5380/re.v34i3reponame:Revista de Economia (Curitiba.
