Abstract

Dieser Beitrag bestimmt das Verhaeltnis zwischen Verhaltensoekonomik und Ordnungsethik. Er entwickelt in acht Thesen das Argument, dass ein methodisch reflektiertes Homo Oeconomicus-Modell unverzichtbar wichtige Beitraege zu Forschung und Lehre zu leisten vermag: zur Erforschung der situativen Stabilitaetsbedingungen moralischer Dispositionen ebenso wie zur Ausbildung gesellschaftlicher Fuehrungskraefte. Aus ordnungsethischer Sicht wird der Verhaltensoekonomik empfohlen, sich staerker institutionentheoretisch sowie insbesondere organisationstheoretisch auszurichten. (This paper elaborates on the relationship between behavioral economics and order ethics. We argue that a methodologically reflected concept of homo oeconomicus can contribute a great deal to both academic research and teaching: It can improve our understanding of the stability conditions of moral dispositions and can inform societal leadership. From the perspective of order ethics, the paper recommends behavioral economics to focus more on the analysis of institutions, especially in the context of organizations.)
