La Escuela Austriaca en The Independent

En las páginas del periódico británico The Independent, de tendencia liberal-demócrata / centro-izquierdista, Dominic Lawson se refiere positivamente a la Escuela Austriaca y a Ludwig von Mises en el contexto de la actual crisis:

There is, however, a small band of men and women – long insulted as fanatics or even fantasists by the political mainstream – who can now say: "We told you so." I am not referring to the Communist Party of Great Britain (Marxist-Leninist). No, I'm talking about the followers of the great Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises (1881-1973). in his 1912 work, The Theory of Money and Credit, Mises declared that the corruption and distortion of money by the state and bankers, usually to pay for wars, was the principal cause both of inflation and – to coin a phrase – boom and bust.
