Abstract

This comment presents six methodological remarks on the paper “The Methodological Paradox in the Mainstream Economic Discourse”. On one hand, we are in agreement with the author in rejecting the approach that considers economics a science that is based on natural laws. Yet, we point out that such an approach was not prevailing all the time for centuries as the author claims. Economics, in fact, was in continuous evolution. يُسجل هذا التعقيب ست ملاحظات منهجية على ورقة منتدى النقاش الرئيسة "المفارقة المنهجية في الخطاب الاقتصادي السائد". تتفق الملاحظات مع صاحب الورقة في رفض نهج اعتبار الاقتصاد علمًا قائمًا على قوانين طبيعية. لكنها تبين أن هذا النهج لم يكن هو السائد طوال قرون متتالية، حيث كان علم الاقتصاد في تطور منهجي مستمر.
