Summary: David Colander has been writing about economic methodology for over 30 years, but he goes out of his way to emphasize that he does not see himself as a methodologist. His pragmatic methodology is applicable to what economists are doing and attempts to answer questions that all economists face as they go about their work. The articles collected in this volume are divided, with the first part providing a framework underlying Colanders methodology and introducing Colanders methodology for economic policy within that framework. Part two presents Colanders view on the methodology for microeconomics, while part three looks at Colanders methodology for macroeconomics. The book closes with discussions of broader issues. -- Provided by publisher.
