Why Does Methodology Matter for Economics?
回顾经济学方法论的重要文献，主张经济学、方法论和哲学是连续的，反对经济学自成一格、不受相关学科批评的观点，并捍卫经济学作为经验科学的地位。
In the context of reviewing some of the important recent literature on the methodology of economics, this article argues for the continuity of economics, economic methodology, and philosophy, against the proposition maintained by some so-called pragmatists and the rhetoric program that economics is sui generis and should be immune to criticism rooted in related disciplines. It is argued that since methodological considerations are unavoidable, effort should be directed to good methodology. The credentials of economics as a somewhat successful, empirical science are defended.
