A Fairy Tale of the Austrian Movement, by Joseph T. Salerno, Mises.org Daily Article, 25 Sep 2007
Related Topics: Peter J. Boettke, Murray N. Rothbard
Critiques the section of Brian Doherty's Radicals for Capitalism that deals with the recent revival of Austrian economics, as recounted by Prof. Peter Boettke
"This leads us to an evaluation of Boettke's broader claim that Austrians are mainly or even exclusively interested in doing research in methodology and related fields. Even a cursory inspection of the publication records of Austrian economists who came of age during the modern revival of the Austrian School reveals this allegation to have utterly no foundation in fact." |
The Philosophical Origins of Austrian Economics, by David Gordon, Mises.org Daily Article, 17 Jun 2006
Related Topic: Aristotle
"The Austrian School of economics arose in opposition to the German Historical School ... Eugen Böhm-Bawerk ... was influenced by a quite different school of philosophy, the nominalists. Ludwig von Mises ... found himself the target of philosophical attack. The logical positivist movement subjected his deductive or praxeological approach to severe scrutiny." |
The Story of a Movement, by Peter J. Boettke, The Freeman: Ideas on Liberty, May 1995
"Milton Friedman stated ... that there was no such thing as Austrian economics—only good economics and bad economics. Well, Friedman was right to an extent. But it turns out that Austrian economics ... provides the foundation for a humanistic, logically sound, and policy-relevant economics." |

What Do Austrians Mean by "Rational"?, by Michael Rozeff, Mises.org Daily Article, 26 Jul 2006
"If human action always aims at a purpose ... then human action must be rational, that is, consistent with reason or guided by one's will and intellect. ... Praxeology tells us that human action is rational. The case being made for state action to remedy so-called irrationalities discovered by researchers in behavioral economics and finance has no logical justification." |
