Abstract

The authors welcome criticisms emanating from neoclassical critics of Austrian economics. We congratulate Laidler for transcending the usual modes of macroeconomic analysis to take on praxeological considerations. This paper should be interpreted as a welcome for his efforts in the hope that they will be widely emulated within the profession. Copyright Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2007
