Abstract
Wade Hands’ magnum opus, Reflection Without Rules (2001), explained the changing contours of philosophy of science to economists and used his philosophical gaze to unpack the changes in economists’ interests over the parallel period. Re-reading now, it seems he played the ‘insider’ and ‘outsider’ in both communities: implying either a considerable intellectual balancing act, or possibly a shifting ‘standpoint’, or maybe something a little different. I conclude that the best way to conceive of Wade's stance is as an insider in economics, undertaking ‘resident field work’ in philosophy to bring it back to the economics community.
