In light of Wittman (1995) and Caplan (2007) this paper contends that the rational-choice approach to political science (�Public Choice theory�) has reached a dead end. By critiquing their treatment of rationality, knowledge assumptions, and views of the democratic process, an alternative is presented based on the core insight of the �Epistemic Primacy Thesis�. This subjectivist approach to political economy is introduced in light of an existing debate between the compatibility (or otherwise) of Austrian economics and Public Choice theory.
