| | Austrian Economics, by Deborah L. Walker: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty |
 | | The Austrian theory of the business cycle and of the inflationary process that takes place because of credit expansion through monetary policy, and the Austrian explanation of the emergence of money in a modern economy are also important contributions to economic analysis. | | | To the Austrian economist efficiency is defined within the process of acting, not as a given or known end state of affairs. | | | Since the Austrian economist holds all costs and benefits to be subjective and, therefore, not measurable, only the individual can decide what actions are efficient or inefficient. |

| | Austrian Economics and the Political Economy of Freedom |
| | In the Austrian conception of the market, prices are not simply quantitative ratios of exchange; they are also the encapsulation of the market participants’ valuations and appraisements, which result from the participants’ buying and selling. | | | The Austrians, unlike their neoclassical rivals, emphasized imperfect knowledge, the pervasive role of time in all market decision-making, and the nature of market coordination through continual adaptation to changing circumstances. | | | It is through economic calculation that billions of individual plans are combined into patterns of rational social coordination. |

| | Welcome to Pat Gunning's Praxological Economics Pages |
| | According to Mises the main goal of economics is to elucidate entrepreneurship, the procedures human actors use to cause the economic functions of production, consumption, saving, and factor-supplying to be performed in a market economy. | | | It presents a systematic discussion of the characteristics of entrepreneurship, it examines the complex and neglected relationship between saving and uncertainty-bearing; it presents clear and unequivocal definitions and illustrations of the concepts of profit and loss, which play a major role in any effort to elucidate entrepreneurship. | | | To avoid all of these problems or at least to better deal with them, the economist who is interested in giving advice to judges ought to advocate a rule of strict liability regarding invasions of real (i.e., material) property. |

| | Austrian economics explains why privatisation works |
| | Hayek, a leading member of the Austrian school of economics, pointed out that the market is also a discovery process, the costs of which are spread among thousands of firms and thus the economy. | | | It means alternative opportunities of using the firm's property (in the form, for example, of shares) to acquire or dispose of income are denied to state managers. | | | Socialists argue that privatisation imposes unnecessary burdens on the community because profits are a cost. |

| | Austrian economists have a stock answer: it's because of time preference. | | | Austrian economists fear that government simply serves to protect incumbents. | | | Caplan uses survey research to show that the public does in fact favor the policies that lead to government spending, regulation, and protectionism. |

| | Mises Economics Blog: Is Austrian Economics Merely Religion? |
| | The hallmark of all policies of all competing economic views is their recognition of antagonists whose interests must be both served and balanced in order to maintain coalitional support. | | | There are ways to expand Austrian thinking along some lines, but most disagreements on economics and government policy come down to methodology, which is why some of it is redundant. | | | A major goal of most professional Austrians, then, must be to popularize what we already know, especially in venues liable to wide dissemination among thoughtful (and voting) folk. |

| | What is Austrian Economics |
| | In the last years of the Habsburg monarchy, he three times served as finance minister, fighting for balanced budgets, sound money and the gold standard, free trade, and the repeal of export subsidies and other monopoly privileges. | | | Then in a series of studies on government policy, he established the theoretical framework for examining the effects of all types of intervention in the market. | | | His paper "Value and Money" spelled out the origins of money, and the nature of economic choice: that it reflects the subjective rankings of an individual's preferences. |

| | Nowadays, Austrians advocate either limited government, in varying degrees, or anarchism. | | | Bankers in a decentralized banking system will circulate notes against their reserves and the note clearing process (not the government) will regulate them. | | | Austrians also anticipated Public Choice and Contestable Markets. |

| | Its mission for students is to help remedy the clear deficiency of much graduate education in economics today that allows technique to crowd out the bigger picture of market institutions. | | | There is also a fellowship program for graduate students seeking to obtain their degrees from NYU who have a demonstrated interest in a broad understanding of the market economy. | | | The approach followed in the series and by the members of the Program eschews the conception of “the economy” as a system continually in a state of economic balance. |

| | Why I Am Not an Austrian Economist |
| | His main conclusions are simple and austere: every market transaction benefits all participants, while every act of government intervention benefits some people at the expense of others. | | | Rothbard was also correct to wonder why actors refrain from bargaining to solve the public goods problem; the vast transactions cost literature sparked by Ronald Coase provides most of the answer. | | | However, current events do nothing to show that economic calculation was the insuperable difficulty of socialist economies. |

| | Book Review - Austrian Economics: An Anthology |
| | Böhm-Bawerk showed that the value of goods is not derived from the quantity of labor devoted to their production. | | | It is still a very clear and readable account of the Austrian version of marginal utility theory, with its commonsensical formulation of how individuals allocate their scarce resources among competing uses so as to attain as many of their ends as their means will permit. | | | The second half of the anthology is devoted to "Epistemology." The Austrians have differed considerably from much of 20th-century mainstream economics in their view of how one studies social and economic processes. |

| | Austrian School of Economics |
| | Academia has generally ignored the Austrian School, and the only reason it continues to exist is because it is financed by wealthy business donors on the far right. | | | But this is the very method that thousands of religions use when they argue their opposing beliefs, and the fact that the world has thousands of religions proves the fallibility of this approach. | | | The Austrian School of Economics is a tiny group of libertarians at war with mainstream economics. |

| | Austrian Economics |
| | The Austrian school argues in favor of consistent laissez faire economic policies, private property, and representative money as opposed to fiat money. | | | Detractors reject the Austrian school as old-fashioned and inflexible, because it does not provide a mechanism for governments to control the money supply and ignores the lessons learnt over the course of the 20th century - particularly the necessity of a welfare state to alleviate poverty and reduce social inequality. | | | Proponents argue that the history of the 20th century actually proves the soundness of their ideas. |

| | Since we're primed to associate intellectual sophistication with mathematics, the difficulty of the concepts is less obvious than would be in the technical works of his statistican brother. | | | 'Human Action: A Treatise on Economics' Written as an economic treatise, rather than as a basic textbook, it is difficult to read and might require going over several times carefully. | | | Because the student is expected to perform this chore him- or herself, a lot of the complexity of the Austrian school is not evident in its works. |

| | Critiques Of Libertarianism: Austrian Economics. |
| | Austrian Economics is a fringe academic view which is greatly preferred by many libertarians on ideological grounds. | | | However, it has even less predictive power than mainstream economics, and has many commonsense problems. | | | While Hayek is widely claimed as a libertarian and an Austrian economist, he's not pure enough for these libertarians (who find him a coercive socialist.) Oh, and of course von Mises is the one, true, infallible Austrian economist too. |
