It has been extremely gratifying to find in recent issues of Review of Social Economy a continuation of analysis of science of economics, particularly its relation to philosophy and human values. The science of economics has been a fascinating subject for debate for many years, beginning with classical economists who claimed there was no relation between economics and philosophy. In Economics As a Moral Science, Kendall Cochran writes: the economist must abandon traditional position that he should not make moral or value judgments; instead, he should not only make them explicitly, but he should actively urge their implementation.
