Patrick Suppes, Economics, and Economic Methodology
English
Patrick Suppes (19222014) was an extraordinarily wide-ranging scholar. Although best known as a philosopher of science, Suppes made substantial contributions to a remarkably wide range of different fields of research including many relevant to economics: decision theory, philosophy of economics, modeling theory, foundations of measurement, philosophy of psychology (and thus what is now behavioral economics), and many other fields. This collection recognizes Suppess contributions to economics and economic methodology with a symposium of papers that examine, build on, and/or assess Suppess research in these areas. The authors include philosophers, economists, game theorists, historians of economics, and many whose research combine these fields. This book honors Patrick Suppes, while at the same time, exhibiting the richness of contemporary philosophy of economics.
It was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Economic Methodology.
