Last but not least, paradigmatic fundamentalism seems to be on the retreat; people, both in policy-making circles and in academia, realise that intellectual bigotry is not of much help in the real world, that market economies need effective regulations (a fact which was amply proved by financial, energy markets and corporate scandals), that governments have a role to play in economic life when it comes to providing public goods -- including effective regulations.
Nu insa in ultimul rand, fundamentalismul paradigmatic pare sa bata in retragere; oamenii, atat in cercurile de decizie cat si in cele academice, devin constienti ca fundamentalismul intelectual nu ajuta prea mult lumii reale, ca economiile de piata au nevoie de reglementari eficiente (lucru ce a fost dovedit clar de scandalurile din sanul companiilor si de pietele financiare si energetice), ca guvernele au de jucat un rol in economie atunci cand este vorba despre oferta de bunuri publice -- printre care si reglementarile eficiente.
