Popper and Economic Methodology Contemporary Challenges Routledge INEM Advances in Economic Methodology Series

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateurs : Boylan Thomas, O'Gorman Paschal

Couverture de l’ouvrage Popper and Economic Methodology

This new book, under the impressive editorship of Thomas Boylan and Paschal O'Gorman, explores a number of major themes central to the work of Karl Popper.

The tensions that have resulted from Popperian thought are well documented. How can mainstream orthodox economics be falsifiable while privileging its core of rationality as unquestionable? This book includes expert contributions from thinkers such as Tony Lawson, K. Vela Velupillai and John McCall, who discuss this issue with renewed academic rigour.

Introduction 1. Popper, Economic Methodology and Contemporary Philosophy of Science 2. Situational Analysis and Popper’s Three World Thesis: The Quest for Understanding 3. Challenging Popperian Rationality: Wittgenstein and Quine Reconsidered 4. Popper and Social Explanation 5. Metaphysics and Growth through Criticism 6. Conjectures on a Constructive Approach to Induction 7. Demystifying Induction and Falsification: Trans-Popperian Suggestions
