The master program in Economic Epistemology and Economic Philosophy  (EEEP)
of the University of Paris-Sorbonne is a one year program, beginning
September 2008 and ending in September 2009. It is part of the Master THEME
(Theory, History, Epistemology and Methodology in Economics).
The courses offered by the Master EEEP are based on: a) a historical
perspective on recent economic theories; b) a reflection on methods and
methodological debates within the field of economic theory; c) a historical
analysis of the relations between economics and other connected disciplines.
