Hayek would sound like? 2010 Level: leicht Fear the Boom and Bust: Keynes vs. Hayek - The Original Economics Rap Battle! Emergent Order Emergent Order Obwohl der Begriff „der Markt“ (in der Einzahl) andauernd – sowohl in der Theorie als auch in Alltagsdiskurse – mit einer großen Selbstverständlichkeit verwendet wird, hat er eine Geschichte, die fast 100 Jahre zurückgeht. Diese Begrifflichkeit wurde erstmals in der Österreichischen Schule der Nationalökonomie, und zwar von Ludwig Mises und Friedrich Hayek, und von Ordoliberalen wie Walter Eucken oder Wilhelm Röpke entwickelt. 2015 Level: mittel „Der Markt“ und seine Politische Ökonomie Walter Otto Ötsch und Stephan Pühringer Working Paper Serie der Cusanus Hochschule Die Statistik war in ihren Anfängen „Staatszustandswissenschaft“, Fürsten erfassten darin in der Kammer ihr jeweiliges Territorium. Durch die Bevölkerungswissenschaft wandelte sie sich schrittweise zu einer formal-mathematischen Theorie. Parallel dazu setzte sich die Geldökonomie immer mehr als herrschende Form durch und transformierte auch die Vorstellung von den handelnden Subjekten. Durch das Prinzip, nur jeweils Durchschnitte zu erfassen, wurde vor allem in der schottischen Tradition des Liberalismus aus der Ökonomik als „moral science“ eine naturalistische Theorie autonomer Marktprozesse. Die Selbstwahrnehmung der Wirtschaft in Statistik und Ökonomik dient – ungeachtet ihrer vermeintlich neutralen, äußerlichen und formal-mathematischen Struktur – vorwiegend den Interessen einer herrschenden Elite. 2017 Level: mittel Die Selbstwahrnehmung der Wirtschaft: Entstehung und Wandel von Statistik und Ökonomik als Theorie für Eliten Karl-Heinz Brodbeck Institut für Ökonomie und Philosophie Cusanus Hochschule This course introduces students to political economy and the history of economic thought.

And Fails Jason Smith Evonomics The Austrian School of Economics is an intellectual tradition in economics and political economy dating back to Carl Menger in the late-19th century.
