现代主义和后现代主义是 2 0世纪重要的文化现象 ,如果我们想要把经济学置于广阔的理智背景中 ,就必须认真考虑这个文化现象。经济学中的后现代主义者否认哲学对一般知识性质的认识 ,否认探究经济行为规则的可能性 ,否认现代主义经济学方法论。他们从多维视角对经济学的考察 ,虽为经济学科开拓了“巨大而有益的研究领域” ,但由于其自身论证存在很大困难 ,因而对传统经济学方法论并不构成真正有效的挑战 Modernism and postmodernism are important cultural phenomena in the 20th century. If we want to place economics in a broad intellectual background, we must seriously consider this cultural phenomenon. Postmodernists in economics deny the philosophical understanding of the nature of general knowledge, deny the possibility of exploring the rules of economic behavior, and deny the methodology of modernist economics. Their study of economics from a multidimensional perspective opens up a “huge and useful field of study” for the economic discipline, but because of the great difficulty of its own argument, it does not pose a real challenge to traditional economics methodology
