description In Economics for the Common Good, Jean Tirole sets a turning point in the way of conceiving the problems and methods used in economics. This article attempts to show that these components define a new identity for economic science, but without economic theory. To this end, Tirole's position according to which economics must be relocated within the social and human sciences is refuted. Consequently, this article contributes to reflection on the analytical scope of the new economic science and the meaning of what economists do nowadays.

En La economía del bien común, Jean Tirole marcó un punto de inflexión en la forma de concebir los problemas y métodos utilizados en la economía. Este artículo busca mostrar que esos componentes delimitan una nueva identidad para la ciencia económica, pero sin teoría económica. Para ello, se controvierte la posición de Tirole según la cual la economía debe ser reubicada dentro de las ciencias sociales y humanas. En consecuencia, este artículo contribuye a la reflexión sobre el alcance analítico de la nueva ciencia económica y el significado de lo que hacen los economistas en la actualidad.
