摘要

本文对经济思想史(HET)进行了定量研究。在先前工作的基础上(Marcuzzo 2008;2012年)，我们提出了一项实证研究，旨在描述近年来HET变化的动态，发现了三个趋势:1)一种“从巨人的肩膀上走下来”的趋势，即转向对“次要”人物和/或最近的经济学家的研究;2)对未发表作品和信件的档案研究蓬勃发展;3)少一些理论性的调查，把知识界联系起来，把人物和事件联系起来。使用Econlit的数据，我们展示了het文章(1955-2013)和het全部或部分专业期刊(1993-2013)的总体出版演变;对于后者，通过设计适合定量评估的代理，我们证明有一些证据支持这些主张。

Is History of Economics What Historians of Economic Thought Do? : A Quantitative Investigation

This paper presents a quantitative investigation into the history of economic thought (HET). Building on previous work (Marcuzzo 2008; 2012), we propose an empirical study with the aim of describing the dynamics of changes in HET in recent years, detecting three trends: 1) a sort of ‘stepping down from the shoulders of giants’, namely a move towards studies of ‘minor’ figures and/or economists from a more recent past; 2) the blossoming of archival research into unpublished work and correspondence; 3) less theory-laden investigations, connecting intellectual circles, linking characters and events. Using data from Econlit we show the evolution of the overall publication of het articles (1955-2013) and of HET fully or partially specialized journals (1993-2013); for the latter, by devising proxies which are amenable to quantitative assessment, we demonstrate that there is some evidence to support these claims.

期刊介绍： History of Economic Ideas is a new international series of Quaderni di storia dell''economia politica, a journal founded in 1983 to promote collaboration between scholars who share an historical approach to the major issues, the various "revolutions" which have left their mark on economics and the spread of economic ideas beyond the narrow circle of specialists. History of Economic Ideas rejects the dichotomy between "analysis" and "culture": both aspects are of equal importance for a wider understanding of the subject. In a period such as our own, where paradigms which once seemed unshakeable are now being challenged, a multidisciplinary analysis of the historical development of economics might contribute to shedding light on the issues at the root of current debate. Besides essays and critical surveys, the journal includes archive material and reviews of new books on history of economics. History of Economic Ideas is double-blind peer reviewed.
