	LUDWIG VON MISES

	LUDWIG VON MISES
		Mises transformed his insights about forced saving and malinvestment into a theory of the business cycle by recognizing the unsustainability of production activities that are based upon a low bank rate.
		Mises' formulation advanced the circulation-credit theory by showing that credit expansion is unsustainable even in a closed economy—or in an open one in which the banks of all countries expand together.
		In sum, Mises saw the boom as a consequence of unenlightened bank policy, a period of artificial and unsustainable expansion, in which capital and other resources are committed to excessively roundabout production processes, and he saw the bust as the inevitable consequence of the credit-induced boom.

	Biography of Ludwig von Mises (1881-1973)
		Mises became prominent post-doctoral student in the famous University of Vienna seminar of the great Austrian economist Eugen von Bohm-Bawerk (among whose many accomplishments was the devastating refutation of the Marxian labor theory of value).
		Mises, and his follower Hayek, developed this cycle theory during the 192Os, on the basis of which Mises was able to warn an unheeding world that the widely trumpeted “New Era” of permanent prosperity of the 192Os was a sham, and that its inevitable result would be bank panic and depression.
		Mises also developed what he considered to be the proper methodology of economic theory--logical deduction from evident axioms, which he labeled “praxeology”;, and he leveled trenchant critiques of the growing tendency in economics and other disciplines to replace praxeology and historical understanding by unrealistic mathematical models and statistical manipulations.

	Ludwig von Mises, Life & Times
		Mises presented a strong defense of a gold standard: "The excellence of the gold standard is to be seen in the fact that it renders the determination of the monetary unit's purchasing power independent of the policies of governments and political parties.
		Mises, "I got in touch with Anne O'Hare McCormick, my colleague on the TIMES, who as you know was the chief writer on foreign affairs for the TIMES then, and she suggested that I get in touch with Breckinridge Long, then Assistant Secretary of State, and in charge of the refugee problem.
		Mises attacked nationalism which, combined with socialism, proved to be lethal: "It is the aim of nationalism to promote the well-being of the whole nation or of some groups of its citizens by inflicting harm on foreigners.

		Never would Ludwig von Mises bend to the winds of change that he saw to be unfortunate and disastrous; neither changes in political economy nor in the discipline of economics could bring him to swerve a single iota from pursuing and propounding the truth as he saw it.
		Mises would pour forth an endless stream of fascinating anecdotes and insights, and we well knew that in those anecdotes and in the very aura and person of Ludwig von Mises we were all seeing an embodiment of the Old Vienna of a far nobler and more charming day.

	George Reisman's Blog on Economics, Politics, Society, and Culture: Ludwig von Mises: Defender of Capitalism
		Mises was my teacher and mentor and the source or inspiration for most of what I know and consider to be important and worthwhile in these fields—of what enables me to understand the events shaping the world in which we live.
		Mises identified the existence of planning under capitalism, the fact that it is based on prices (“economic calculations”), and the fact that the prices serve to coordinate and harmonize the activities of all the millions of separate, independent planners.
		Mises was a consistent champion of the self-made man, of the intellectual and business pioneer, whose activities are the source of progress for all mankind and who, he showed, can flourish only under capitalism.

	Ludwig von Mises
		Mises states: "Socialism was the great panacea, but it seemed that nobody really knew what it meant and how to bring it about properly." So, they confessed that they did not know what to do and that was the end of that Revolutionary government in Germany.
		In conclusion, Mises writes: "Socialism is for the peoples of the industrial world no longer a living force." In this he voices his opinion, and the opinion of the convinced reader that socialism is dead.
		Mises was too harsh in saying that the people that live under socialist regime are animals, but he was right in the fact that choice is taken away from them.

	The Dark Wraith Forums
		Ludwig von Mises brought to the 20th Century the "Classical" school of economics that had been broadly and deeply outlined by the founders and early thinkers in the discipline, men like Adam Smith and David Ricardo.
		Ludwig von Mises ensured that these pivotal, deep understandings were with us as the 20th Century brought forth great change and, therefore, great challenges to economics as a useful tool of modernity.
		Ludwig von Mises's general theory of money, itself, later came to be a focused school of thought called "monetarism," and one of its chief proponents would achieve fame and a Nobel Prize perhaps in part on the misguided notion that he, and not Ludwig von Mises, comprehensively set forth the theory.

		Mises, by then a government adviser, and Wilhelm Rosenberg, a lawyer friend who was an expert in financial questions, convinced Seipel that for the good of the people the printing of superfluous banknotes should be stopped.
		Mises himself, foreseeing the threat of Hitler's totalitarian regime, left Vienna in 1934 to take a position at the Graduate Institute for International Studies in Geneva, Switzerland, although still retaining his old apartment in Vienna and his professional ties with the Institute for Business Cycle Research and with the Chamber of Commerce.
		Margit in Vienna managed to telegraph Ludwig, by then back in Geneva, "no need to come." She and her daughter, Gitta (Margit's son was already out of the country, studying in England), finally succeeded in obtaining the necessary papers and railroad tickets, left Austria and traveled to Switzerland, where Margit and Ludwig were quietly married.

	Ludwig von Mises / Biography
		When Professor Ludwig von Mises died at the age of 92, the world lost an intellectual giant who was perhaps the most articulate, consistent and courageous defender of liberty and the free market that modern times have known.
		However, like all the truly great scholars, Mises has left the world an amazing abundance of knowledge in his many works; works that generations yet to come will continue to benefit from, and from which those generations can trace the evolution of his lifetime of scholarship.
		Here is Mises' science of praxeology (the economics discipline broadly defined) or the study of human action laid out for all to see and to appreciate.

	LUDWIG VON MISES: FROM HISTORICIST TO PRAXEOLOGIST
		Mises was not against the use of understanding in history because, of course, history requires presuppositions in the form of the subjective perspective of the researcher.
		Mises said that action was a category of the mind, in a Kantian sense, that was required in order to experience phenomenal reality (i.e., reality as it appears to us).
		Mises’ economic science is deductive and based on laws of human action that he contends are as real as the laws of nature.

	Ludwig von Mises’ Legacy for Feminists: Publications: The Independent Institute
		The name of the eminent Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises does not commonly arise in feminist circles, which tend to view the free market as an institution through which men as a class oppress women as a class.
		Mises called static classes that labor under legal disabilities “castes.” Castes are created when legal barriers are raised to cement people into a class and prevent social mobility.
		Mises would argue that the only valid step in the foregoing ladder of logic is that men, as a class, share a common anatomy.

	Batman and Mises: Discovery of the Boulder Letters
		The Ludwig von Mises Institute (LvMI) notes Mises fled the Nazis in 1938, went to Switzerland, and then emigrated to the United States in 1940.
		Mises' intellectual lineage extends to Boulder via economist John Valentine Van Sickle, who left his Harvard economics studies to volunteer for the Army during WWI.
		Mises' 1944 book, Omnipotent Government: The Rise of Total State and Total War, is described by LvMI as "the first full-scale examination of German-style National Socialism as a species of socialism in general." Hatred of totalitarianism and overreaching state power is seared into the libertarian psyche.

	Ludwig von Mises Praxeology and Economics Page
		Ludwig von Mises was the last internationally recognized head of the "Austrian" school of economics.
		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.
		Following Mises, it shows how the new subjectivism is derived from the old subjectivism, or the subjective theory of value, and how it is a revolution against both positivism and elitism in economics.
