| Wertfreiheit - Economics Dictionary of Arguments | |||
| Wertfreiheit: Wertfreiheit in economics refers to the principle of value neutrality, meaning that economic analysis should remain free of personal, ethical, or political judgments. Introduced by Max Weber, it emphasizes objective reasoning, distinguishing between empirical statements ("what is") and normative statements ("what ought to be"), ensuring scientific rigor in economic research. See also Objectivity, Science, Neutrality, Judgments._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
