Abstract
MISAS ARANGO, Gabriel. EL CAMPO DE LA ECONOMÍA Y LA FORMACIÓN DE LOS ECONOMISTAS. Cuad. Econ. [online]. 2004, vol.23, n.40, pp.205-229. ISSN 0121-4772.
This article analyses the field of economics (particularly the influence of north- american academic thinking on educating economists) and the consolidation of standard economic theory´s domination of the field. Together these have contributed towards de-legitimising scientific currents different to neo-classical theory in which the excessive formalisation and use of mathematics has played a determinant role.
Keywords : teaching economics; economic epistemology.
