Gestalt Psychology and Economic Regulation

Gestalt Cognition is anti-Atomist because it imposes structure on an otherwise unrelated manifold in the process of producing the objects of perception.  However, Gestalt Psychology, i. e. the implication of such structuring in behavior, is not necessarily so.  It is anti-Atomist when organizing individual pursuits, but the resultant totality can still remain Egological, and, hence, is Atomist in that respect.  Now, debatable is whether or not a complication of such organization, by the elimination of otherwise more efficient courses of action that take advantage of others, is, as Kant proposes, the effect of an extending of Gestalt operations beyond the Egological scope, i. e. debatable because those operations--Universal Legislation--remain within a mere private intention in his doctrine.  In contrast with those virtual operations are actual ones--actual Legislation, and other means of shaping society.  In other words, it is in Political rule that Gestalt Psychology, and its anti-Atomism, has its greatest scope, e. g. regulation vs. the pursuit of personal wealth.
