Abstract: According to the new perspective from evolutionary ontology, the fundamental assumptions on reality postulated by western mainstream economics are completely inconsistent with the basic structure and nature of economic reality. In mainstream analytic framework, the complex, hierarchical and open economic reality involving creative and innovative agents is reduced into a closed-system with only atomistic individuals. Due to such reduction, western mainstream economics is incapable of appropriately researching into many important economic issues such as endogenous novelty, historical time, systematic effect, production and economic underdevelopment.

Key words: western mainstream economics, analytic framework, evolutionary ontology

摘要： 西方主流经济学的分析框架是以对实在基本假定为基础的,但根据演化本体论,这种对实在的基本假定却背离了经济实在的根本结构和性质,它将有机层级结构还原为原子式个体,将开放系统简化为封闭系统,排除了对于理解经济系统绝不可少的解释要素。正是这种根本缺陷导致了西方主流经济学无法有效处理诸如内生新奇创生、历史时间、系统效应、生产和经济欠发达这样的重要经济学问题。
