The article is a formal response to the debate between the economists Diane Coyle and Howard Reed, whose articles were published online by Prospect magazine in 2018.

To substantiate this claim an epistemological framework of how scholars study their objects of inquiry and relate their models to reality is discussed. Furthermore, it is argued that given the current institutions of our scientific system, economics self-organizes towards a state of scientific unity. Since such a state is epistemologically inferior to a state of plurality, critical intervention is desirable. 2017 Level: avancé The Complexity of Economies and Pluralism in Economics Claudius Gräbner Johannes Kepler University Linz (ICAE) and University of Duisburg-Essen (IfSO), Journal of Contextual Economics Dieser Foliensatz behandelt die wissenschaftstheoretische Herausbildung der Nekoklassik, sowie die neoklassischen Standardmodelle. 2022 Level: débutant Neue Neoklassik: Wissenschaftstheoretische Herausbildung und neoklassisches Standardmodell Christian Grimm Johannes Kepler Universität Gegenüberstellung der wichtigsten ökonomischen Theorien 2022 Level: débutant Paradigmenvergleich ökonomischer Theorien Christian Grimm Exploring Economics
