最近诞生的表达“分析叙事”指的是在历史，政治科学和经济学的边界出现的研究。这些研究旨在通过将历史学家通常的叙述方式与经济学家和政治学家在理性选择理论中找到的分析工具相结合来解释特定的历史事件。博弈论在这些工具中是突出的。本文通过从贝茨、格雷夫、列维、罗森塔尔和温加斯特（1998）的episonial book《分析性叙事》（Analytic Narratives）和蒙金（Mongin，2008）的一项外部研究中取样，解释了什么是分析性叙事。本文首先运用历史解释哲学对新文体的解释力进行评价，然后运用叙事学对新文体的话语一致性进行检验。本文的结论是，分析叙事可以有效地补充历史解释中的标准叙事，只要他们专注于这些叙事所揭示的空白，并且他们是话语一致的，尽管将正式模型与叙事相结合会产生紧张局势。两种临时模式，称为交替和当地补充，从讨论中出现的最适当的解决这种紧张局势
The recently born expression "analytic narratives" refers to studies that have appeared at the boundaries of history, political science, and economics. These studies purport to explain specific historical events by combining the usual narrative way of historians with the analytic tools that economists and political scientists find in rational choice theory. Game theory is prominent among these tools. The paper explains what analytic narratives are by sampling from the eponymous book Analytic Narratives by Bates, Greif, Levi, Rosenthal, and Weingast (1998) and covering one outside study by Mongin (2008). It first evaluates the explanatory performance of the new genre, using some philosophy of historical explanation and then checks its discursive consistency, using some narratology. The paper concludes that analytic narratives can usefully complement standard narratives in historical explanation, provided they specialize in the gaps that these narratives reveal and that they are discursively consistent, despite the tension that combining a formal model with a narration creates. Two expository modes, called alternation and local supplementation, emerge from the discussion as the most appropriate ones to resolve this tension
