With respect to McCloskey:
I, too, read Feyerabend in the 1970s. I, too, learned that
REASON was just one more god, like all the others driving us to
insanity. Now I have learned that McCloskey is just one more
methodologist.
McCloskey is a false start. It is not a question of HOW to build
Economics in the present informational environment. It is an
imperative to do so. But even this statement is a distracting
reflection.
Answer to Stanfield: Yes, for that very reason. If politicians are
slaves to dead economists, economists are slaves to dead
philosophers, but need not be.
Answer to Heath Will C: Excellent! Excellent!
