On Parallelism in Neo‐Classical Economic Theory

Abstract

A point of view (or standpoint) on neo‐classical economic theory may be based on the seminal works in the history of science of Thomas S. Kuhn and Jacob Bronowski. To be specific, one of Kuhn's conceptions of a paradigm may be interpreted to mean that an exemplar that is articulated is a paradigm. And Bronowski's conception of induction may be interpreted to mean that, when an exemplar of a theory is articulated, the parallelism of the concepts of the theory may be revealed, and gaps in a matrix may be closed.
