İKTİSAT VE REALİZM İLİŞKİSİ: METODOLOJİK AÇIDAN BİR DEĞERLENDİRME

Abstract

İktisat bilimi ve realizm arasındaki ilişki gerek iktisat metodolojistleri gerekse de bilim felsefecileri arasında ilgi çeken güncel konulardan biridir. Bu bağlamda, son yıllarda realist yaklaşımların özellikle iktisat felsefesi alanında yeni yönelimlerden biri haline geldiği görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada, iktisat ve realizm ilişkisi eleştirel bir bakış açısıyla ele alınarak metodolojik açıdan bir değerlendirme yapılmaktadır.

Keywords

• İktisat metodolojisi, bilimsel realizm, eleştirel realizm
