经济学理论的话语分析与社会建构——基于麦克洛斯基的经济学修辞学分析

Discourse Analysis on Economics and Social Construction——Research on Deirdre N. Mc Closkey’s Rhetoric of Economics

论文从分析麦克洛斯基的经济学修辞学入手,探讨了经济学修辞学研究的形成与发展的历史,经济学理论建构中修辞学方法的运用,尤其是隐喻,现代化文本规范等修辞方法在理论建构中的重要作用,从而指出经济学修辞学包含多元方法论并且建构真实世界。麦克洛斯基通过区分认识论实在论和本体论实在论以规避经济学修辞学研究遭受到的反身性困境质疑,代之以伦理实在论。我们则认为一种宽容的、多元化的经济学方法论或实效经济学是经济学方法论的最新走向。
