Abstract

Thorstein Veblen rejected the mainstream economics' homo economicus typology. Instead of this, he spokes of the existence of an individual acting in the context of the habits of thought. This human typology has some harmful behaviors to the society. In this context, it could be said that metaphysical beliefs takes part in Veblen's thought. But, when there is a lack of resolution in the settlement of the problems that are experienced in real world, metaphysical ideas will be useful. However, rationalism should be the main element in using metaphysical ideas.

Özet

Thorstein Veblen yerleşik iktisadın kabul ettiği homo economicus tipolojisini reddetmiştir. Bunun yerine, düşünce alışkanlıkları çerçevesinde davranışlar sergileyen bireyin varlığından bahsetmektedir. Bu insan tipolojisi, topluma zararlı davranışlarda bulunmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, Veblen'in düşüncesinde metafizik inançların önemli yer tuttuğu söylenebilir. Ancak, reelde yaşanan sorunların çözümünde bir kilitlenme yaşanması halinde metafizik fikirler yararlı olacaktır. Yine de metafizik fikirlerin kullanımında rasyonellikten uzaklaşılmaması gerekmektedir.
