Feminist and post-Keynesian economics: challenges and opportunities
比较女性主义与后凯恩斯经济学在本体论和认识论上的分歧与共通点，指出理解这些差异有助于促进两者间的建设性对话，并强调多元方法对研究问题的价值。
There are significant areas of difference between feminist and post-Keynesian economics. Some feminist contributions to discussions about ontology and critical realism suggest strong reluctance to adopt realist philosophies and these provide a marked contrast with post-Keynesians' frequent appeals for economics to reflect 'reality'. At the same time, however, some post-Keynesians are calling for a more inclusive, pluralist approach to economic research, a discussion that has areas of commonality with various feminist discussions of epistemology. Continued productive dialogue between the two traditions may be facilitated through an understanding of their contrasting ontological and epistemological debates. It may be further accommodated by growing recognition of the potential advantages of utilising plural methods to address specific research questions. Copyright The Author 2007.
