Austrian Economics Today I

The International Library of Austrian Economics Vol. 7

The Austrian School of Economics and its representatives think in fundamental and radical terms, and their way of thinking is sometimes too radical to be implemented in day-to-day economic policies. But this is exactly the reason why their considerations provide us with important insight which, perhaps not immediately but in the medium and long term, proves to be deeply correct and applicable for the renewal of the State, politics and the economy.
