Description
This comprehensive study systematically builds an economics of science, examining how scientific practice functions through an economic lens. The book treats scientists as economically rational individuals and explores key areas including economic models of misconduct, legitimate scientific practices, market failures within the marketplace of ideas, self-correctiveness mechanisms, and the organisational and institutional structures that shape modern science. By integrating economic theory with epistemology, the work addresses how resource constraints, incentive structures, and institutional frameworks influence scientific research and discovery. The final section examines broader methodological themes that emerge when applying economic analysis to science itself, offering readers a rigorous framework for understanding the economic foundations of scientific enterprise and the complex relationships between methodology, epistemology, and economic rationality in contemporary research.

Key Features

The Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy series presents this systematic economics of science framework for advanced students and scholars.

Economic models of scientific misconduct and legitimate practices reveal how incentive structures shape research behaviour and institutional integrity.

Analysis of market failures in the marketplace of ideas demonstrates why science requires specific organisational structures to function effectively.

Examination of self-correctiveness mechanisms shows how economic principles explain science's capacity for long-term knowledge refinement and validation.

Methodological exploration integrates economics with epistemology, bridging disciplinary gaps and offering new perspectives on how science produces reliable knowledge.
