Are you saying the economic paradigm is that incentives matter? Is that supposed to be rigorous and informative enough to count as a cognitive victory in the scientific sense of having consensus on a body of knowledge that's not just potentially so much dogma or political propaganda? I think not.

"Incentives matter" isn't distinctively economic, so you're dodging the issue by jumping down a theoretical level, into psychology, sociology, or biology.

What's the economic paradigm that most economists agree on, a paradigm that's couched in economic language that indicates progress in the field of economics?
