The cognitive sciences, having emerged in the second half of the
twentieth century, are recently experiencing a spectacular renewal
which cannot leave unaffected any discipline that deals with human
behavior. The primary motivation for our project has been to weigh
up the impact that this ongoing revolution of the sciences of the
mind is likely to have on social sciences in particular, on
economics. The idea was to gather together a diverse group of
social scientists to think about the following questions. Have the
various new approaches to cognition provoked a crisis in economic
science? Should we speak of a scientific revolution in economics
occurring under the growing influence of the cognitive paradigm?
Above all, can a more precise knowledge of the complex functioning
of the human mind and brain advance in any way the understanding of
economic decision-making?
This volume brings together economists from various traditions such
as Austrian economics, evolutionary economics, institutional
economics, law and economics, neuro-economics and bio-economics.
More specifically, it contains contributions by William N. Butos
and Roger G. Koppl, Geoffrey M. Hodgson, Carine Kreck and Elisabeth
Kreck, Janet T. Landa, Thomas J. McQuade, Steven G. Medema, Bart
Nooteboom, Richard A. Posner, Salvatore Rizzello and Alfons Corts.
