HES: Re: DISC--HET and Economic History being threatened"down-under"

[Yukihiro Ikeda]

Dear all,

I am really enjoying the ongoing discussions here on the list.
Still I am not quite certain about the following:

When one says that the HET must remain in the field of economics also  
in the future,
or rather must in integrated in other fields like philosophy or  
history per se,
what is meant is a strategy to get wider audience and readers?

Or is it implied that we must
find our place based on the very nature of the research of HET and  
that it must be positioned in certain areas of our thinking in the  
normative
sense of the word?

It seems to me that the above two are basically different, although
they are sometimes intertwined to each other.
