摘　　要：本文从对《经济学方法论杂志》一期关于经济学方法论研究的专辑的回顾出发,系统梳理和考察了该研究领域的发展脉络,并总结出三个主要发展趋势:经济学方法论正在向经济学哲学转换,经济学方法论和本应与之密切相关的经济思想史与非正统经济学正在加速分离,经济学方法论的考察对象正在从方法论转向具体方法。针对上述三种趋势,本文进一步从高等教育环境改变的视角分析了其形成的原因,并探讨了这些趋势可能会给经济学方法论研究带来的问题,尤其阐述了在遭受主流经济学霸权的全面压制下,方法论者不再广泛采用经济思想史和非正统经济学的分析方法事实上很难让其实现反思经济学发展的学术目的。基于此,本文认为要打破这样的困境,就需要恢复经济学方法论与经济思想史和非正统经济学的纽带关系。最后,为寻求恢复的途径,本文尝试性地给出了一个可行的研究策略,即米洛夫斯基的“科学社会学的涡流模型”方法,并详细阐述了其内容、特点,以及就本文问题而言的适用性。Starting from reviewing a special symposium issue on economic methodology in the Journal of Economic Methodology,this paper examines the development in the field of economic methodology and summarizes three main trends: economic methodology is being transformed into philosophy of economics,the separation of economic methodology from the history of economic thought and heterodox economics is accelerating,and the topic of economic methodology is shifting from Methodology to specific methods. This paper further analyzes the reasons for these three trends from the perspective of the changing environment of higher education and discusses the problems that these trends may bring to the study of economics methodology. Based on that,this paper argues that to break out of this dilemma,it is necessary to restore the ties between economic methodology and the history of economic thought and heterodox economics. Finally,in order to find a way to recover the ties,the paper tentatively gives a feasible research strategy,namely Philip Mirowski ’s “vortex model of the sociology of science”approach,whose content,characteristics,and applicability in the context of this paper are elaborated.
