Read Now Economic Science and the Austrian Method RTF
A definitive defense of the methodological foundations of Austrian economics. Hans-Hermann Hoppe sets the praxeological view (economics as a purely deductive science) against positivism, while taking the critics of the Austrian approach head-on. Hoppe rests his argument on the Kantian idea of the "synthetic a priori" proposition, thereby expanding an aim of Mises's in the methodology section of Human Action. Hoppe is the Austrian School's most prominent methodologist, and here he is in top form. He combines a rigorous scientific explanation with fantastic passion and rhetoric.
