Opis:: One of the salient trends in the social sciences in recent years has been economics' colonialism of other social sciences. At the outset of the present article a widespread thesis considering economics to be the "queen" of all social sciences is presented and some epistemic reasons cited on its behalf critically evaluated. The bulk of the body of the paper is devoted to an in-depth analysis of two influential theories epitomising the aformentioned paradigm: George C. Homan' theory of social exchange was the precursor to most now current rational choice approaches. To an even grater extent, the tendency toward transferring concepts and laws of economics onto the various non-economic areas of social life has been from the very outset present in the theory of economic behaviour developed by the Nobel winner, Gary Becker. Both above-mentioned approaches are grounded in the notion of economic man, which prompts a more comprehensive examination of this concept of rational utility maximiser being postulated as the underlying foundation for not only economics but also for other social sciences. The upshot of that analysis is not encouraging; neither of the components to to the notion of homo economicus can withstand critical scrutiny. More broadly, the same refers to the entire idea of economics as purportedly core or root social science from which all others should be derived or at least borrow their concepts, propositions and approaches. In the light of our critical analysis, economic or economics imperialism should be discarded once for all.

Opis:: Podstawowe gałęzie psychologii, takie jak psychologia poznawcza, decyzji, czy też zachowań ryzykownych, zostały dostosowane do analiz lokujących się na styku ekonomii i psychologii. W ekonomii podobny trend zapoczątkował Gary Becker, który jako ekonomista dokonał ekspansji na obszary zarezerwowane dla psychologii, socjologii i politologii. Przypominając dorobek Beckera, autor omawia cechy charakterystyczne obydwu podejść: psychologicznego i ekonomicznego, i wskazuje różnice warsztatów badawczych, wynikające z celów i źródeł obu nauk, które uniemożliwiają ich wzajemne przenikanie się. Pomimo tych problemów, zdaniem autora, przyszłość należy do tego, co się na tym pograniczu narodzi, i co być może na zawsze odwróci uwagę od manii kwantyfikowania rzeczywistości przy pomocy rozbudowanej analizy matematycznej.

Tytuł:: Rola psychologii w ekonomicznej teorii zachowań ludzkich Gary’ego S. Beckera
The role of psychology in Gary S. Becker’s economic approach to human behavior

Opis:: The paper presents an interpretation of G.S. Becker’s “economic approach to human behavior” with regard to relations of this standpoint in economic methodology with psychology. The aim of the paper is to properly identify the role that psychology plays both in works of Becker himself, and in the “economic approach”. Ties of psychology with the “economic approach” are subject to the analysis in the following aspects: Becker’s declarations, practice of his work, as well as in the context of methodological sources of inspiration of the “economic approach”, with the potential of its enhancement towards a more consistent use of findings of psychology. Beckerian methodology is presented in such a way, so as to highlight its historic and methodological roots and inspirations. It is considered as an uncompromised application of situational explanation, Popperian rationality principle, Robbins’ analytical definition of economic science, as well as Freidman’s view about the irrelevance of “realism” of economic model assumptions. The paper indicates that despite inspiration with Bentham’s psychology, the “economic approach to human behavior” fits into anti-psychologist paradigm in economic methodology. In accordance with methodological standpoints of Popper, Robbins and Friedman, Becker replaces “realistic” descriptions of human psyche with axiomatic, “unrealistic” assumptions of maximization and rationality. However, psychological knowledge is very relevant for Becker’s theory because it constitutes an important condition for accurate construction of individual utility functions. Therefore, by the utilization of a question from moral psychology, the paper presents the possibility of the ”economic approach” more deeply rooted in Bentham’s ideas, with potential benefits for explaining human behavior. As indicated by D.C. North, neoclassical economics poses a problem: Why do people comply with social institutions and keep promises under conditions, in which maximizing individual utility would suggest otherwise? A solution to this problem might be assuming the existence of a Beckerian commodity, that could be named moral self-satisfaction. This reasoning may run into criticism related generally to the elaborated methodological concept, with particular role of the “adhocery” accusation of Mark Balug. However, the concept of pleasures and pains bound with moral beliefs is rooted in our psychological, and even biological, knowledge about man, his needs and mind. The approach this paper proposes may be helpful in accomplishing a number of goals. First, the ancient forerunner of the “economic approach” Jeremy Bentham tried to create a comprehensive list of kinds of pleasures and pains. Such a list is increasingly more likely to be created in contemporary times, due to developments in psychology, unknown to Bentham. Secondly, developments in psychology may offer both inspiration and empirical support for particular commodities assumed in Beckerian utility functions,
