		Economics may in principle be applied to any problem that involves choice under scarcity; this includes such diverse topics as the governance of production, distribution of wealth as well as the various related problems of finance, taxation, labour, law, poverty, pollution etc.
		Despite the extreme controversy surrounding larger economic issues, there is significant agreement among mainstream economists on the fundamentals of the subject, especially as reflected in microeconomics as opposed to macroeconomics.
		This is viewed as a failure to respect economics by libertarians, and viewed as a failure of economics to respect society by socialists.

	Austrian School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Austrian School is a school of economic thought that rejects opposing economists' reliance on methods used in natural science for the study of human action, and instead bases its formalism of economics on relationships through logic or introspection called praxeology.
		The Austrian School is generally associated with groups that label themselves classical liberals or libertarian in their ideas of social, political and economic organization.
		The school originated in Vienna and owes its name to members of the Historical School of economics who during the Methodenstreit, where the Austrians defended the reliance that classical economists placed on logic over observation.

	Principles of Economics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Principles of Economics is a book by economist Carl Menger which is credited with the founding of the Austrian School of economics.
		Menger stressed uncertainty in the making of economic decisions, rather than relying on "homo oeconomicus" or the rational man who was fully informed of all circumstances impinging on his decisions.
		Most importantly he fundamentally rejected the use of mathematical methods insisting that the function of economics was to investigate the essences rather than the specific quantities of economic phenomena.

	Encyclopedia: Marxist school of economics
		The adherents of Marxian economics, particularly in academia, distinguish it from Marxism as a political ideology, arguing that Marx's approach to understanding the economy is an intellectually valuable one, independent of Marx's advocacy for revolutionary socialism or the inevitability of proletarian revolution.
		This was partly a reaction to the Methodenstreit, an attack on the Hegelian doctrines of the Historical School.
		To some, Marxian economics may be viewed not as an all-encompassing approach, but as one important element in an analytical toolset--perhaps part of a broader category of heterodox economics or radical political economy.

		The treatment of economics as a branch of biology seems self-evident to these critics of market economics, but it is not yet the accepted basis of either monetary systems or economic development, even though an increasing amount of attention is paid to energy cost issues in economics.
		The Marxist paradigm of economics is not generally held in high regard by most market economists, even though some of the concepts from his work are, from time to time, used in mainstream contexts, particularly in labor economics and in political economy.
		The most influential school of this synthesis was monetarism formulated in the late 1940's and early 1950's by Milton Friedman and associated with the University of Chicago.

	MARXIAN ECONOMICS
		Soon after the death of Karl Marx, a Marxian school of economics emerged under the leadership of Marx's inner circle of companions and co-writers, notably Friedrich Engels and Karl Kautsky, both of whom were German.
		Specifically, Bernstein (1899) challenged the Marxian notion that the economic breakdown of capitalism was "inevitable" and thus if socialism is to exist, it must be a conscious choice, channeled through the political end educational system, rather than a matter of preparing for the "inevitable" revolution.
		Bukharin's "market-based" New Economic Policy, where peasants were allowed to market and keep the surplus of their own production, was attempted under Lenin in 1921 With the rise of Stalin, the NEP was scrapped, the agricultural sector brought to heel with terror and collectivisation, and State-led industrialization (and Preobrazhensky himself) came back into vogue.

	The Chronicle: 1/24/2003: Taking On 'Rational Man'
		Not all the rebels are Marxists, although most do charge that neoclassical economists refuse to admit that their approach is "sycophantic to capitalism," as Steve Keen puts it.
		The second vice is "flboard economics": "endless thinking about imaginary economies that don't ever have anything to do with the world." In her view, "that's not science; that's just chess problems." A genuine science like physics, she says, would observe and describe a phenomenon long before even venturing to model it.
		Neoclassical economics is "a pretty baggy framework, and a lot that goes on in it might not be quite what used to be thought of as neoclassical economics," says the Stanford University scholar, who is regarded as an architect of the mathematization of modern economics.

	Austrian School : Austrian economics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The Austrian School is a school of economic thought founded in 1871 with the publication of Carl Menger's Principles of Economics, which helped start the Neoclassical Revolution in economics in the late nineteenth century.
		The school originated in Vienna and owes its name to members of the Historical School of economics who during the Methodenstreit, where the Austrians defended the reliance that classical economists derisively called it the "Austrian School" to emphasize its departure from mainstream German thought and to suggest a provincial approach.
		Austrian economists developed a sense of themselves as a school distinct from neoclassical economics during the economic calculation debate, with Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich von Hayek representing the Austrian position.

	Hilferding-ch03
		But the representative of the psychological school of political economy fails to see this social nexus, and he therefore necessarily misunderstands a theory which definitely aims at disclosing the social determinism of economic phenomena, a theory whose starting point therefore is society and not the individual.
		We are thereby led, in the most striking contrast to the outlook of the psychological school, to regard political economy as a part of sociology, and sociology itself as a historical science.
		This economic theory signifies the repudiation of economics.

	Market failure Summary
		Economists of the Public Choice school often argue that market failure does not necessarily imply that government should attempt to solve market failures, because the costs of government failure might be worse than those of the market failure it attempts to fix.
		This failure of government is seen as the result of the inherent problems of democracy perceived by this school and also of the power of special-interest groups (rent seekers) both in the private sector and in the government bureaucracy.
		In general, Marxists would argue that the system of individual property rights is a fundamental problem in itself, and that resources should be allocated in another way (usually democratically or assigned by a central planner or planning board held democratically responsible to the people).

	Listen, Marxist!
		We believe it was born of an era of scarcity and presented as a brilliant critique of that era, specifically of industrial capitalism, and that a new era is in birth which Marxism does not adequately encompass and whose outlines it only partially and onesidedly anticipated.
		Marxists lean on the fact that the system provides a brilliant interpretation of the past while willfully ignoring its utterly misleading features in dealing with the present and future.
		These are not strictly economic groups anymore; in fact, they reflect the tendency of the social development to transcend the economic categories of scarcity society.

	Marxist Economics
		Marxist economics is a school of thought in economics which has developed from the writings of Karl Marx (1818-1883).
		While many Marxists emphasise its importance the 'rational choice marxists' have recently argued that it is a burden preventing Marxism becoming a modern social science which they argue it would require it to embrace methodological individualism and rationality, that is using the tools of neoclassical economic analysis.
		Most of the recent developments in Marxist economics can be seen as part of a revival in the interest in the subject due to changed economic circumstances in the 1970s.

	Marxist Humanism
		Marxist Humanism emerged in the wake of Khrushchev's speech at the 20th Congress and the short-lived “thaw” which followed in the Sooviet Union.
		In the West, Marxist Humanism grew in response to the same social forces in the capitalist countries, and would burst forth in 1968 through the student uprisings beginning in Paris, and the failure of the Communist Parties to adequately respond to these sentiments.
		Marxist humanists therefore emphasise human agency and subjectivity, as against structuralist interpretations of social theory, as, for example, espoused by Louis Althusser, and place greater emphasis on ethical rather than social-theoretical problems of Marxism.

		A bourgeois critique of a particular bourgeois school of economics.

		In his last chapter, on the alternative economic theories which might replace the debunked neoclassical theory, there is no mention that Marxist economics might be the way to go here.

	HSR Online Spring 97
		The early development of the Austrian school of economics, and the intellectual battle waged between it and the German historical school are episodes in the history of thought which have been largely overlooked.
		When one considers that economic laws such as those offered by Austrian political economy provided devastating critiques of government intervention in the economy, it is easy to deduce how a school of thought that rejects the validity of economic laws could be put to use for political ends.
		No other economic school of thought has placed such a premium on the effects of psychology--as far as it determines an individual's perceptions of means and ends--on the economy as a whole.

	What is Austrian Economics
		He realized that economics is not about the amassing of data, but rather about the verbal elucidation of universal facts (for example, wants are unlimited, means are scarce) and their logical implications.
		As professor of economics at the University of Vienna, and then tutor to the young but ill-fated Crown Prince Rudolf of the House of Habsburg, Menger restored economics as the science of human action based on deductive logic, and prepared the way for later theorists to counter the influence of socialist thought.
		It is economics made whole." The appearance of this work was the hinge of the whole history of the Austrian School, and it remains the economic treatise that defines the School.

	Economics and Ethics of Private Property
		The core theoretical insight uniting the entire discussion is as consistently applied here as it is neglected by the economic mainstream: the absolute inviolability of private property as a human right as the basis of continuous economic progress.
		To rise from the ruins of socialism and overcome the stagnation of the Western welfare states, nothing will suffice but the uncompromising privatization of all socialized, that is, government, property and the establishment of a contractual society based on the recognition of private property rights.
		Hans Hermann-Hoppe is professor of economics at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and a senior fellow of the Ludwig von Mises Institute.
