Abstract
First paragraph: Great mountains out of little molehills grow. I emphasized the importance of methodology in my discussion of Weintraub and Wiles (Dow, 1981) because I am convinced that most "real" issues which divide economists arise from methodological differences. As such, I was not accusing Roy Weintraub of having a "flawed methodology" but rather arguing that he did not carry over the methodological analysis in Chapter 1 of his book (1979) to the analysis of microfoundations.
