Researchers are expected to produce original findings, yet nobody
explains how original contributions are conceived in economics.
Recently there have been calls for more creativity in economic
research, yet there is no literature that explores creative
research apart from collections of biographical essays. This book
aims to address that gap, exploring the process of conceiving and
generating ideas for interesting and original research
contributions in economics (and potentially other social sciences
too). Creative Research in Economics serves both a practical and
theoretical purpose. Theoretically it presents a unique way of
thinking about the nature of problems and questions in economics
and the role of social science researchers in society. As such it
offers an interesting way to think about the philosophy of science
and methodology in economics, and how new ideas emerge in the
discipline. Practically it develops techniques for finding
interesting and original research contributions (as opposed to
conventional data-gathering research). Whether you are a graduate
student looking for that first interesting question, a novice
researcher in search of fresh avenues for research after your PhD,
or a seasoned academic looking to teach the philosophy and
methodology of economics in more interesting ways, you will find
this book of great use.
