Philosophische Ideen und ökonomische Erkenntnisprogramme - Anmerkungen zu dem Essay von Steffen Groß / Philosophical ideas and Economics: a comment to Steffen Groß

Abstract

Real or alleged crises in economics often give rise to ask whether the naturalistic manner in economics - mathematics, econometrics and that all - can be the proper way to gain essential and useful knowledge of an economy. Instead to search for economic or social laws economists should try to understand the cultural basis and cement of economic behavior and economic relationships. The proper method to do economics has to be the method of hermeneutics (comprehensive understanding). To this proposal of Steffen Groß I comment in some detail. My starting point is the work of the philosopher Hans Albert who has written much to analyse critically the scope and method of economics.
