Positive economics

Introduction: This page is the main page for information about positive economics. Positive economics is one of the most prominent theories about what economic theory is all about. Two classic references on positive economics are Milton Friedman [1953] and Fritz Machlup [1955]. Positive economics has nothing to do per se with corporate governance. However, it is not difficult to argue that much of what goes on in corporate governance research can be categorized as positive economics. This is mainly because of the its preoccupation with hypothesis production and hypothesis testing / verification.
