Abstract

In 1982 my bookBeyond Positivism: Economic Methodology in the Twentieth Centurywas published. At the 2017 History of Economics Society meeting, a session was held to mark the 35th anniversary of that event. Papers by Wade Hands, Kevin Hoover, Tony Lawson, and the trio Peter Boettke, Solomon Stein, and Virgil Storr were prepared. In this paper, I respond by reflecting on how I came to writeBeyond Positivismand on the state of the field of economic methodology at the time, and then commenting briefly on each of the papers noted above.
