摘要翻译：
本文讨论了经济物理学对经济或金融领域的贡献。由于传统的经济学或金融学的研究方法不足以完全描述和解释相应的现象，我们讨论了经济物理学能否为这些问题提供新的见解。因此，提出了一项评估，以衡量其潜在的机会和限制。这一点尤其重要，因为人们普遍认识到，在经济物理学短暂的存在过程中，不仅物理学家而且经济学家对寻找有助于解释现有问题的新方法越来越感兴趣。事实上，已经提交了许多论文，发行了一些书籍，出版了新的期刊，举行了几次会议，维持了一个网站--http://www.unifr.ch/econphysics，展示新闻、活动、书评、论文和博客；3年制执照学习（西里西亚大学[1])和学士学位。课程（弗罗茨瓦夫大学[2])已经创建，也有一些博士。论文已经写好。因此，一个基本的问题出现了：这只是一种时尚，还是一种更加一致的东西将会盛行？这就是本文所要解决的问题。

英文摘要：
  This paper debates the contribution of Econophysics to the economic or financial domains. Since the traditional approach performed by Economics or Finance has revealed to be insufficient in fully characterizing and explaining the correspondingly phenomena, we discuss whether Econophysics can provide a new insight onto these matters. Thus, an assessment is presented in order to weight its potential opportunities and limitations. This is particularly relevant as it is widely recognized that during its yet short existence Econophysics has experienced a growing interest not only by physicists but also by economists in searching for new approaches that could help explaining existing questions. In fact, many papers have been submitted, some books have been released, new journals have been published, several conferences have been held, a site is maintained -- http://www.unifr.ch/econophysics where news, events, book reviews, papers and a blog are exhibited; a 3-year licentiate studies (University of Silesia [1]) and a B.Sc. course (University of Wroclaw [2]) have been created and also some Ph.D. thesis have been written. Therefore, a fundamental question arises: Is this just a fad or is it something much more consistent that will prevail? This is what this paper addresses.
