Newsweek and the Austrians

July 1, 2008 8:55 PM by Jeffrey Tucker (Archive)

Probably not since Hazlitt wrote for Newsweek has its pages mentioned the Austrians so it is interesting to read this:

At Vienna University, the works of the great Austrian school of capitalist thinkers were all but ignored for more than half a century. In 2005, thanks to fund-raising by a local free-markets group, there is now a new professorship teaching such key theorists as Joseph Schumpeter (think "creative destruction") and Friedrich Hayek (famed for his impassioned critique of socialism).

    When they connect the name of Ludwig von Mises to the great Austrian school of capitalist thinkers they will have done their journalistic homework and also cast aside the shackles of their oppressors who can be rightly described as ego-driven interventionists.
