Regarding model building I think economics could benefit from a broader philosofical and sociological approach. Abstraction involves important issues not mentioned here. "Ideal types" in Weber and "real abstraction" in Marx are examples of different approach to the abstraction problem.

I wonder what could be said about testing economic models in different economic systems. China's political system (democracy at the bottom, experiment in the middle, meritocracy at the top) seem to open a lot of opirtunities for real econonic experimentation. I would arguee that the problem of experimentation is not a limitation of economics itself but a limitation of the economic systems it operates in.
What's with the expressions of the girl on Skidelsky's left? looks like she has done a few gender studies courses before being selected for participation in these vids.

Randomized control trials are also questionable too as methodological tool
External validity problems can be somewhat overcome by using quasi-experimental data
Well, I am on the side of Deaton and all the victims of policies designed thinking in the RCT once the policy was implemented...
Oh kaimene..
If economics is not a science because of its difficulities , what should we do to solve them?
Nifty
