An interpretive history of challenges to neoclassical microeconomics and how they have fared
Contemporary microeconomics has witnessed a resurgence of behavioral, institutional, and evolutionary critiques of the neoclassical mainstream that came to dominate the field during the 1980s. Today's critiques and proposals for reform have a long tradition in economics. While synthesizing the intellectual history of these challenges, this article explores the reasons why such critical strands of microeconomics fared poorly in the past, and--in contrast--what factors may account for their partial acceptance into the mainstream in recent times.
