在生态经济学中，关于形式主义和形式化的争论已经在关于生态经济学作为“后正常”（与“正常”）科学的热烈讨论中得到了解决。使用生态经济学（EE）作为“种子”期刊，并应用文献计量学技术的所有（2533）的文章发表在EE从1989年1月至2009年12月，我们分析了生态经济学领域的演变，旨在阐明这一争论。我们观察到某些研究主题的主导地位（和增加的相关性）：“方法问题”，“政策，治理和机构”和“估值”。此外，“集体行动”，“技术变革和环境”和“价值观”的立场作为新兴的研究主题。最后，我们注意到，生态经济学经历了一个“经验转向”，反映在从完全形式化的论文转向完全经验，并在更大程度上，“正式和经验”的。突出和新兴的主题和“经验转向”的结合反映了研究人员在需要解决生态经济学的一个关键特性-经济，生物物理和社会领域的相互依赖性领域的认识不断提高。在此基础上，我们认为，至少通过生态经济学的透镜，生态经济学已经朝着后常态科学的方向发展。
In ecological economics the debate on formalism and formalization has been addressed in the context of a lively discussion on ecological economics as a ‘post-normal’ (versus ‘normal’) science. Using ecological economics (EE) as a ‘seed’ journal and applying bibliometric techniques to all (2533) the articles published in EE from January 1989 to December 2009, we analyze the evolution of the field of ecological economics aiming to shed light on this debate. We observe the predominance (and increased relevance) of certain research topics: ‘Methodological issues’, ‘Policies, governance and institutions’ and ‘Valuation’. Moreover, ‘Collective action’, ‘Technical change and the environment’ and ‘Values’ stand as emergent themes of research. Finally, we note that ecological economics experienced an ‘empirical turn’ reflected in a shift away from exclusively formalized papers towards exclusively empirical and, to a larger extent, ‘formal and empirical’ ones. The combination of the prominent and emergent topics and the ‘empirical turn’ mirrors the increasing awareness among researchers in the field of the need to address a key specificity of ecological economics — the interdependence of the economic, biophysical and social spheres. On this basis, we argue that at least through the lens of EE, ecological economics has evolved towards a post-normal science.
