Dimitrije Birač

Abstract

Main theme of this work is critique of Mises' criticisme of Marx. It is divided in six parts and conclusion. First part explains hypothesis and motives of this work. Main representative of austrian school – Ludwig von Mises – as the radical critic of Marx’s economic thought and Marx’s thought in general, unsuccesfully studies its basics and also didn’t manage to display them with full truth. He didn’t accomplish that and therefore his critique of Marx is false and brought to question Mises’ integrity and honor as a scientist. Work describes chapter by chapter Mises’ book in which he critizes Marx’s thought and proves Mises’ incredibility and dishonesty as a scientist and as a critic. Second part explores Mises’ critique of certain philosophycal foundations of Marx’s thought. Further, the third part describes certain critique of Marx’s political thought. Fourth part analyzes Mises’ critique of Marx’s understanding of economic questions including iron law of wages and economic crises.
