Beskrivning

This book explores the thought of the three ‘founding’ members of the Austrian School of economics: Carl Menger, Friedrich von Wieser, and Eugen Böhm-Bawerk, considering the overlapping and specialization of their work on money, value, and capital. Offering an incisive overview of the work of three important, but often-neglected figures, the author sheds fresh light on the transition from Adam Smith’s economics and the thought of the German School, to modern economic theory, considering also the influence of the Austrian School on the work of Max Weber. As such, it will appeal to scholars with interests in the history of ideas, economic theory, political economy, and social theory.

Recensioner i media

“Adair-Toteff splendidly meets his ambitious goal, and he does so within the pages of a book that one could comfortably fit into their back pocket. [He] wastes no space, and examines his subjects with razor-sharp focus […]. I believe this volume will not only be of use to those of us working on the Early Austrian School but to contemporary readers as well, since the contextualization can only serve to further enhance our understanding of later Austrian School theories by such luminaries as von Mises, Hayek, Rothbard, and others. To know where we are going, it helps to know where we’ve been.”- Salvatore Taibi, Cosmos + Taxis
