摘要：Carrying out experiments constitutes a special kind of empirical study of reality. Experimental economy is a process of internal transformation of knowledge applied to economical systems concerning methods of production, decision-making and consumer behaviour. The elements which used to be considered as fixed parameters in the neoclassical approach constitute an object of analyses and clarification of ongoing processes in the evolutionary approach. This paper presents experimental economy, which is becoming more and more popular. The purpose of the first part of the article is to present the essence and meaning of the term “experimental economy” and to reveal the development of this discipline. The second part of the paper is concerned with management as a scientific discipline, with which the author deals on a day-to-day basis. In the final part of the article the author presents a possibility to use experimentation as a tool that can be applied also in management science.
