ABSTRACT
Using bibliometric data and social network analysis, this chapter maps the intellectual output since the early 1990s of two philosophies or methodologies of economics. The first set of research stems from the specialized field. We show that the existing interpretive literature captures its main divisions relatively well. The second set consists of publications that are coded as “Economic Methodology” by the JEL classification system, but that are otherwise not part of the specialized field. We find that this other philosophy of economics has concerns that are different from those of field publications, including a continuing interest in the heterodoxy in economics. The existing interpretive literature has failed to recognize this diversity among philosophies of economics.
