摘要
经济学方法论的研究长期受到知识"规范性"的制约。在经济学方法论多元化发展背景下,经济学隐喻的语用价值和认知价值得以被关注。经济学隐喻所具备的机制、功能在经济学理论分析和建构过程中具有重要作用,因此,把隐喻作为一种经济学方法论,在保持经济学理论自身的"开放性"及其理论建构等方面具有重要的实践意义。
The study on economic methodology has traditionally been constrained by the "rules and regulations"of knowledge. The pragmatic and cognitive value of economic metaphor deserves concern in the context of the diversified development of economic methodology. Given the important role that the mechanism and function of metaphor have played in analysis and construction of economic theories,it is of great practical significance to take metaphor as an economic methodology in maintaining the "openness"of economic theories themselves as well as their theoretical construction.
