But It Will Never Be Science, Either
批评新古典计量史学对历史问题的狭隘处理，指出科学并无单一目标或方法，经济史学家应开发所需工具解决问题，而非受制于僵化的科学标准。
In the neoclassical-cliometric view of historical events, earlier concerns with economic change over time are now “out of bounds.” This narrowing has been justified by the supposed demands of scientific rigor, but a new model of science suggests that this need not be so. Science does not have any single goal or method. Science demands that economic historians develop whatever tools are needed to solve the problems they face. Examples of this already exist.
