Abstract

This paper discusses the legacy of Austrian economist and economic sociologist Friedrich von Wieser (1851–1926) and shows a number of reasons why Wieser can be seen as an undeservedly underresearched scholar. His life and work are portrayed along five dimensions: the innovative social scientist (section 2); the erector of the Austrian School in its formative decades (section 3); the synthesiser of socio-economic ideas (section 4); the teacher to whom scientific credit has been granted unfairly seldom (section 5); the connector to contemporaneous paradigms of economic sociology, especially the ones of Max Weber and Vilfredo Pareto (section 6).
