This paper is the introduction to a special issue of the Cambridge Journal of Economics on the topic of ontology and the history of economic thought. It explains what is meant by social ontology and why ontological issues should be taken seriously by historians of economic thought. It then goes on to introduce the contributions to the special issue.

This paper aims to understand the relationship between Radical Economics (RE) and Endogenous growth theory (EGT) based on a comparison of concepts and methods. Our findings include the existence of a set of common concepts, namely “power”, “conflict”, “technology” and “education”, but a different method of analysis: EGT uses a set of mathematical models to support its ideas, whereas RE seems to combine an appreciative approach with a mathematical framework after the mid 1980s.
