The book responds to the pressing need for greater clarity regarding the relationship between descriptive, evaluative, and prescriptive approaches within positive and normative economics. It delves into the intricate interplay between evaluative and prescriptive perspectives within various theoretical frameworks in normative economics, including social choice theory, the capability approach, behavioral welfare economics, and various theories of justice. By offering a platform for discussion between diverse schools of economic thought and numerous theoretical frameworks, the book specifically emphasizes the connection between the study of facts, norms, and values, with a particular focus on classical political economy, the Marxian school of economics, the Frankfurt School, the Austrian school, the Chicago school, rational choice theory, expected utility theory, behavioral economics, experimental economics, development economics, welfare economics, public economics, constitutional political economy, the capability approach, and politico-economic theories of justice. Given the broad range of topics addressed in this book, it holds significant appeal to economists, historians of economic thought, political philosophers, and philosophers of science, particularly those with an interest in the philosophy and epistemology of economics.
