Routledge - Otto Neurath and the History of Economics

Explore the economic legacy of Otto Neurath through this scholarly work from Routledge. While Neurath is often recognized for his contributions across various fields in the early twentieth century, he was a trained economist who produced extensive writings on the subject. This book provides a dedicated space for his work within the history of economic thought. Readers will examine Neurath's critical views on the philosophical foundations of economic concepts and his scrutiny of imprecise economic terminology. The text analyzes his arguments against reducing economic theory solely to matters of price and his critique of certain quantitative approaches. By analyzing his ideas on their own terms, this volume offers a deep look into a significant yet often overlooked figure in economic history.
