Abstract
This paper reviews the conceptualisation and analysis of pluralism and diversity in the philosophy of economics and economic methodology in order to clarify the different meanings employed. The aim is to address ambiguities in and between the relevant literatures and to identify lacunae which offer opportunities for further research. The different meanings of pluralism and diversity are explored in terms of the different domains to which they are applied and the different presuppositions and values of each community. A focus is put on ‘schools-of-thought pluralism’, ‘mainstream pluralism’ and social diversity; feminist economics is considered as a case study. Scope is identified for the specialist philosophy of economics to expand its understanding of pluralism and diversity, encompassing heterodox schools of thought and the role of non-epistemological values with respect to diversity. There is also scope for seeking further synergy between pluralist analysis and diversity analysis.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
