Abstract
Chapter 16 summarizes the argument and shows that the methodological peculiarities of economics depend to a considerable extent on the fact that it is a social science. The fact that equilibrium theory includes a theory of rationality helps to explain why positive and normative economics are so intermingled, why economists are so strongly committed to their theory, and why they pursue a distinctive strategy.
