NOTE What is the essence of praxeology?

1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.240
People are not stoned down, they're people who have choices, they have consciousness, they choose their purposes and goals, etc.

2
00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:10.880
And so this whole neoclassical economics is totally off on a wrong track.

3
00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:17.840
And so he thinks about this, he sets forth his views on praxeology, what he calls the correct, what he calls praxeology,

4
00:00:17.840 --> 00:00:22.560
the correct analysis, the Austrian analysis of individual action,

5
00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:27.000
where economics essentially deals with the logical implications of the fact that people act.

6
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:33.000
How do you know that people act? You just look at yourself and look at other people. You see that they act. They don't like stones and atoms. They have purposes.

7
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:36.000
On this knowledge, all the economic theory is deduced.
