Anthropologists and economists: conflict or cooperation?

John Lodewijks

Journal of Economic Methodology, 1994, vol. 1, issue 1, 81-104

Abstract: Economists have sought little systematic help from economic anthropology. Some of the reasons for this neglect can be gleaned from a study of the history of economic anthropology and in monitoring the reaction of economists to these efforts. The substantivist-formalist methodological debate and the fieldwork of some modern development economists are examined. There are some indications that the interaction between economists and anthropologists might be moving in a more productive direction.
