ABSTRACT

This chapter is an account of the writings of Eugen Böhm-Bawerk and has two major sections. The first section is an overview of his thinking and an investigation of a number of his key concepts, including his subjective notion of value, his ideas about labor and Marxism, and his contributions to a theory of capital interest. The main texts for these ideas are found in the two-volume collected works. The second section is a detailed examination of his conception of capital, which Böhm-Bawerk set out in the volume on positive theory of capital from Kapital und Kapitalzins.
