【摘要】：本文首先概述了经济学哲学名篇中穆勒、凯恩斯、罗宾斯和弗里德曼等经济学方法论"大家"关于经济学理论及其假定、规则、规律等和现实的关系,指出两者虽然有相符合的地方,但是毕竟也有不相符合之处。理论是我们理解现实的桥梁,如果没有理论,我们就不能理解现实。经济学家要尽力修正理论,使之逼近现实。进而论述了经济学家在将经济学理论应用到改造世界的过程中往往会出现问题,有时甚至会以失败告终。经济学家要公正地批判自己的理论,对得出的结论需保持一种适当怀疑的态度。最后得出:经济学家的作用主要在于认识世界(或解释世界、预测世界),而不是改造世界。也只有在经济学理论不断修正的过程中,经济学理论改造世界的积极作用才能逐渐体现出来,经济学家的积极作用也才能发挥出来。
[Abstract]:This paper first summarizes the relationship between economic theory and its assumptions, rules, laws, and reality in the famous works of economics philosophy, such as Mueller, Keynes, Robbins and Friedman, etc. Points out that although the two are consistent, but there are also inconsistent. Theory is the bridge through which we understand reality. Without theory, we cannot understand reality. Economists should try their best to revise the theory to make it close to reality. Then it discusses that economists often have problems and sometimes fail in the process of applying economic theory to the transformation of the world. Economists must be fair in criticizing their own theories and be appropriately sceptical about the conclusions they draw. Finally, it is concluded that the role of economists is mainly to understand the world (or explain it, predict the world, not transform the world. Only in the process of constant revision of economic theory, the positive role of economic theory in transforming the world can be gradually reflected, and the positive role of economists can also be brought into play.
