On May 28–29, 2010, twelve experimental economists gathered at the Dutch Royal Academy of Arts and Sciences in Amsterdam for a witness seminar on the history of the experiment in economics. Though the witness seminar has been used as an oral method of research in contemporary history and in the history of medicine and technology, this was its first extensive use in the history of economics. My contribution examines the witness seminar as a method of oral history, its merits and pitfalls, using this witness seminar on experimental economics as a nonrepresentative sample.

见证研讨会的方法

2010 年 5 月 28 日至 29 日，十二位实验经济学家聚集在阿姆斯特丹的荷兰皇家艺术与科学学院，就经济学实验的历史进行了见证研讨会。尽管见证研讨会已被用作当代历史和医学和技术史的口头研究方法，但这是它在经济学史上的首次广泛应用。我的贡献将见证研讨会作为口述历史的一种方法及其优点和陷阱进行了研究，并使用这个关于实验经济学的见证研讨会作为非代表性样本。
