Riassunto

This volume develops the epistemological and research-practical foundations required for Generative Relational Economics. It examines how relational realities become accessible through evidence, manifestation, representation, interpretation, judgment, and historically situated inquiry, while maintaining a distinction between what is observed or represented and the relational structures inferred from those manifestations.

The epistemological analysis addresses evidential mediation, uncertainty, salience, interpretation, representation, model dependence, inverse inference, and historical re-epistemization. Knowledge is treated as a relational achievement whose validity depends upon the interaction among objects of inquiry, observers, methods, institutions, records, and interpretive contexts.

The volume then develops research as praxis. Historical, interpretive, qualitative, quantitative, empirical, formal, and computational approaches are treated as partially irreducible modes of epistemic access rather than as components of a universal methodological hierarchy. Their relations may involve complementarity, tension, mutual correction, and revision.

The final portion develops a methodology of relational inquiry concerned with entities, relations, processes, events, states, properties, boundaries, memberships, networks, and historically evolving relational structures. Particular attention is given to the identification of relational objects, comparison across contexts, temporal reconstruction, representation, evidence, and the limits of relational attribution.

The result is an epistemological and methodological architecture for studying relational economic systems without reducing them either to isolated entities or to a single privileged mode of representation.

Informazioni sull'autore

Wanhong HUANG is an independent scholar working at the intersection of philosophy, the theory of relations, economics, and the formal modeling of social dynamics. He is the founder of Serendip Commons Society and the author of the framework of Generative Relational Being, which reconceives justice and governance in terms of the conditions under which relations remain generative. He develops that framework with the tools of dynamical systems theory, group theory, and axiomatic construction alongside those of philosophy.

He holds a Master's degree from the Graduate School of Information Science and Technology at the University of Tokyo, with prior research in computational neuroscience. His background spans computational science, engineering, the humanities, and literature, and his work moves between Chinese, Japanese, and English.

Philosophy of Intimacy and the Theory of Justice is his ongoing series on the normative structure of close relations.
