Its historical emergence is related to some theoretical and methodologi-cal research results within the post-Keynesian school of economic thought. An assump-tion is made as to the proper place Philosophical Keynesianism will have in the future, for its scope of investigation is becoming much more comprehensive and inclusive than the economic school which engendered it. The paper reviews some major contribu-tions of this new field of inquiry, such as the books of Carabelli, ODonnell and Davis. It also seeks to reinforce the case that, as it is quite clear from Keynes approach to economic theorizing, economics should be seen as a moral and socio-historical sci-ence rather than a natural science, and that a more realistic and relevant study of economic phenomena should be grounded on some sort of interdisciplinary research
