| Zusammenfassung: | The beliefs of economists are not solely determined by empirical evidence in direct relation to the theories and models they hold. Economists hold 'ontological presuppositions', fundamental ideas about the nature of being which direct their thinking about economic behaviour. In this volume, leading philosophers and economists examine these hidden presuppositions, searching for a 'world view' of economics. What properties are attributed to human individuals in economic theories, and which are excluded? Does economic man exist? Do markets have an essence? Do macroeconomic aggregates exist? Is the economy a mechanism, the functioning of which is governed by a limited set of distinct causes? What are the methodological implications of different ontological starting points? This collection, which establishes economic ontology as a coordinated field of study, will be of great value to economists and philosophers of social sciences |

Economists hold 'ontological presuppositions', fundamental ideas about the nature of being which direct their thinking about economic behaviour. In this volume, leading philosophers and economists examine these hidden presuppositions, searching for a 'world view' of economics. What properties are attributed to human individuals in economic theories, and which are excluded? Does economic man exist? Do markets have an essence? Do macroeconomic aggregates exist? Is the economy a mechanism, the functioning of which is governed by a limited set of distinct causes? What are the methodological implications of different ontological starting points? This collection, which establishes economic ontology as a coordinated field of study, will be of great value to economists and philosophers of social sciences Philosophie Wirtschaft Economics / Philosophy Economics / Methodology Economic man Macroeconomics Microeconomics Ontologie (DE-588)4075660-9 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftsphilosophie (DE-588)4066489-2 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftstheorie (DE-588)4079351-5 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftliches Verhalten (DE-588)4197971-0 gnd rswk-swf Rationalität (DE-588)4048507-9 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Wirtschaftstheorie (DE-588)4079351-5 s Wirtschaftliches Verhalten (DE-588)4197971-0 s Rationalität (DE-588)4048507-9 s 2\p DE-604 Wirtschaftsphilosophie (DE-588)4066489-2 s Ontologie (DE-588)4075660-9 s 3\p DE-604 Mäki, Uskali edt Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-00020-8 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-80176-8 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511752049 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
