Description: This paper examines the discourse produced in the academic journal Ecological Economics from itsinception in 1989, and compares this discourse with that of the field of environmental economics. Iused methods for discourse analysis (Alceste and Iramuteq) on 6,308 abstracts of papers publishedin four journals – namely Ecological Economics, the Journal of Environmental Economics andManagement, Environmental Values, and Environmental and Resource Economics, publishedbetween 1989 and 2013. The results suggest that the discourse of ecological economics andenvironmental economics have grown closer over time. The semantic classification of co-occurrentterms used in Ecological Economics indicates increasing significance of the notions of ecosystemservices and of monetary valuation. I argue that this trend is parallel to Costanza’s career-path,which suggests the rise of a tacit recognition of the New Environmental Pragmatic scientificapproach. I conclude with some of the implications for EE of promoting this kind of discourse tosuch an extent.
