Abstract
Ludwig von Mises ist allgemein anerkannt als Ökonom, der sich mit den grundlegenden Fragen seiner Zeit, z. B. der Wahl eines geeigneten Wirtschaftssystems (Sozialismus oder Liberalismus), Grenzen des staatlichen Interventionismus sowie Geldtheorie und monetären Erklärungen des Konjunkturzyklus befasste. Weniger bekannt ist, dass Mises versucht hat, einen eigenständigen methodologischen Ansatz, den er „Praxeologie“ nannte, zu entwickeln. Dieser praxeologische Ansatz und Möglichkeiten seiner Anwendung auf die Entrepreneurship-Forschung stehen im Mittelpunkt des vorliegenden Artikels. Dabei wird deutlich werden, dass der weiterentwickelte Ansatz viele Berührungspunkte zur Entrepreneurship-Forschung hat, z.B. indem er das individuelle Handeln des Gründers in den Mittelpunkt stellt und u. a. die Frage aufwirft, wie deren individuelles Handeln von kollektiven Strukturen (Unternehmen, Markt, Staat, Land) beeinflusst wird und wie andererseits individuelles Handeln die kollektiven Strukturen verändert. Trans-Abstract: Ludwig von Mises is well known as an economist dealing with fundamental questions and central problems of his time, e. g. choice of an efficient economic system for the economy as a whole (socialism, liberalism), problems and pitfalls of state regulation of private enterprise, monetary theory and monetary policy and business cycles caused by credit expansion and resulting interest reduction. Less know is that Mises also published methodological and epistemological papers. He created a methodological system which he called “praxeology”. This praxeological approach and possibilities for its application on entrepreneurship research are the topic of this paper. It will be shown that a reformulated praxeological approach is well suited to entrepreneurship research and can give many impulses for the analysis of entrepreneurial activity (e.g. strict focusing on individual action as central unit of analysis and research on the embeddedness of the entrepreneur in collective structures like markets, firm, state, country).
