Der Verfasser skizziert zunächst die wirtschaftspolitische Konzeption als Referenzrahmen der Diskussion um eine Theorie der Wirtschaftspolitik. Er gibt im folgenden einen Überblick über Paradigmenwechsel in der Theorie der Wirtschaftspolitik und unternimmt den Versuch der Verortung einer solchen Theorie im Lehrgebäude der Sozialwissenschaften, wobei die Beziehungen zur praktischen Wirtschaftspolitik, Wirtschaftsgeschichte, Betriebswirtschaftslehre, Statistik und Systemtheorie behandelt werden. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird nach dem für eine Theorie der Wirtschaftspolitik zur Verfügung stehenden Angebot an wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Einzeltheorien gefragt. Neben einer solchen "traditionell" orientierten Theorie der Wirtschaftspolitik werden ein kognitiv-evolutionärer Ansatz sowie eine Orientierung an der Neuen Politischen Ökonomie diskutiert. (ICE)
