Abstract: The paper delivers some reflections on the concept of singular economic event, starting from the concept of economic as well as from the distinction between the natural world and the economic (larger, social) world in an ontological perspective. In this context, the paper shows we never meet economic phenomenon, but only its historical hypostases: economic events. And there are not but only singular economic events.
