- Summary:
- The most fundamental questions of economics are often philosophical in nature, and philosophers have, since the very beginning of Western philosophy, asked many questions that current observers would identify as economic. The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Economics is an outstanding reference sourcefor the key topics, problems, and debates at the intersection of philosophical and economic inquiry. It captures this field of countless exciting interconnections, affinities, and opportunities for cross-fertilization. Comprising35 chapters by a diverse team of contributors from all over the globe, the Handbook is divided into eight sections: I. RationalityII. Cooperation and InteractionIII. MethodologyIV. ValuesV. Causality and ExplanationVI. Experimentation and SimulationVII. EvidenceVIII. Policy The volume is essential reading for students and researchers in economics and philosophy who are interested in exploring the interconnections between the two disciplines. It is also a valuable resource for those in related fields like political science, sociology, and the humanities.
