Papers from a conference held on 15-17 April, 1989, to commemorate the acquistion by the Duke University of the papers of Carl Menger.
Papers presented at a symposium held in Vienna, June, 1971. Includes bibliographical references.
First published in 1892, Carl Menger's article "Geld" ("Money") has been extremely influential on the thinking of today's neoclassical and New Institutionalist economic theorists, argue Latzer and Schmitz (both of the Research Unit for Institutional Change and European Integration at the Austrian Academy of Sciences). They present the first full English translation of the article (occupying nearly half the volume) alongside commentary by current theorists on the article's continuing relevance to theories about the origins and the future of money.

This book deals with central elements of the cultural, political and social background of Austrian economic theory in general and Menger's version of it in particular. It draws on Menger's theoretical writings as well as on his explicitly methodological works as source material.
Carl Menger is considered the father of the Austrian School of Economics. His pioneering work, " Principles of Economics," published in 1871, not only introduced the concept of marginal analysis but also presented a radically new approach to economic analysis, which remains the core of Austrian theory of value and prices. For the beginner, "Principles of Economics" remains an excellent introduction to economic reasoning, and for the expert, it is the classic demonstration of the fundamental principles of the Austrian School. Despite its solid economic content, this work is extremely comprehensible even for readers not specialized in economics. This is due to the author's crystal-clear reasoning, always accompanied by numerous and didactic examples.
This book analyzes both the consistent and changing elements in the Austrian School of Economics since its foundation in the late 19th Century up to the recent offspring of this School. It investigates the dynamic metamorphosis of the school, mainly with reference to its contact with representatives of history of economic thought.
In diesem Buch versuchen Forscher auf dem Gebiet der Philosophie und der Wirtschaftswissenschaften aus Österreich und Frankreich den Erörterungen Carl Mengers (1840-1921), des Begründers der Österreichischen Schule der Nationalökonomie, nachzugehen. Dabei werden für Menger wichtige und weiterhin aktuelle Themen in den Vordergrund gestellt. Alle Beiträge verfolgen ein Ziel: Menger von seinen Wurzeln her zu verstehen und dazu als Quelle seinen Nachlass aus den Archiven in Japan und den USA mit heranzuziehen. Dieses Buch richtet sich an alle, die Menger anhand seiner eigenen Texte lesen wollen. In this volume, the views of the founder of the Austrian School of economics, Carl Menger (1840-1921), are clarified by various specialists (Austrian and French, economists and philosophers) with the common purpose to understand Menger at his roots. All themes (including his views on liberal creeds, on methodology and theory) surge from a common source: the archives that make up Menger's Nachlass (his private library located in Japan and his notebooks in the USA). This volume is intended for all those who want to read Menger in his texts.
Karl Menger (1902-1985) was the mathematician son of the famous economist Carl Menger.

This title offers the transcription of those parts of Menger's notes.
