Politicised revisionism: comment on Lopes (2021)
评论Lopes(2021)关于社会主义计算辩论史的文章,指出其误解了辩论的核心论点,并引用新史料表明奥地利学派的解释比标准解读更丰富,Lange对Mises的回应实际上是在反驳一个稻草人。
Abstract We comment on a recent article by Lopes (2021), whose argument regarding the writing of the history of the socialist calculation debate is unfortunately burdened by a misconception of both the substance and nature of the argument that ignited the debate. Bringing additional sources from this time to scholars’ attention, we show that there is much more to the Austrian interpretation than standard interpretations of the debate admit. In fact, our findings indicate that Lange’s famous response to Mises’s challenge constitutes a rebuttal of a straw man.
