600The paper examines matters arising from the recent Mariotti's article. It argues that the social epistemological practices of engineering and economics are different, in ways that must creation tensions as and when they try to work together. However, the details of these differences, and aspects of economics, combine to suggest that Mariotti's article can be read as suggesting what will be needed for economists' epistemic power to be deployed into new areas, to address crises facing 'the planet', and how engineering can accompany them as they do this.
