Abstract

As of 1907 Pareto began to voice his conviction that “economics is simply a branch of sociology”, with the suggestion that “purely economic deductions are fairly remote from reality” and therefore provide “only one, often secondary, factor for the resolution of issues which, this notwithstanding, are nevertheless termed economic”. Then, in 1913, Pareto confessed that where in the past he had thought “that economics could be studied independently of sociology”, he now believed that “it is essential to connect economic phenomena with other social phenomena in order to arrive at a theory covering situations arising in the real world”.
