The relationship between Austrian economics and behavioral economics is a complex and multifaceted one. On the one hand, behavioral economics rejects the positive claims of modern, standard neoclassical economics and yet accepts its normative standards. Thus behavioral economics is itself a hybrid; it is part psychological economics and part neoclassical economics. Furthermore, many behavioral ...

A ustrian economics has been important to the development of modern economics, but its role in current practice is much diminished. The neoclassical approach dominates today’s thinking. Many Austrians bemoan this state of affairs; most neoclassical economists just ignore it. But Austrian and neoclassical economics aren’t mutually exclusive. Each represents a distinctive point of view, although ...

There is a schism within economics between the neoclassical and behavioral schools. A primary cause of the behavioral ascent is the experimental evidence of deviations between actual behavior and the neoclassical prediction of behavior. While behavioral scholars have documented these “anomalies,” they have made little progress explaining the origin of such behavior. This paper proposes a biolog...

In their recent analysis of the alleged decay in modern economics, Ben Fine and Dimitris Milonakis claim to find its source and origin in the ‘marginal revolution’ of the 1870s. They argue that this development led to ‘methodological individualism’ and the detachment of economics from society and history. I contest their account of the marginal revolution and of the role of Alfred Marshall amon...

The relation between Thermodynamics and Economics is a paramount issue in Ecological Economics. Two different levels can be distinguished when discussing it: formal and substantive. At the formal level, a mathematical framework is used to describe both thermodynamic and economic systems. At the substantive level, thermodynamic laws are applied to economic processes. In Ecological Economics, the...

In recent years, interest in the role of institutions in economic society has increased and economists have been forced to incorporate them into economic analysis. The institutional perspective has not only brought new challenges for economics, but also led to a re-evaluation, redefinition, and transformation of the discipline itself.
