The Methodology of Economic Model Building (Routledge Revivals)

More about the book

Focusing on the intersection of economics and philosophy, this work delves into the application of Karl Popper's ideas on falsifiability within economic model building. Boland draws on over two decades of research to explore methodological debates and the truth status of models, bridging discussions in both natural and social sciences. The book offers a critical examination of how these philosophical concepts influence the construction and evaluation of economic models, enriching the understanding of methodology in the field.
