Abstract

Oskar Lange’s great breadth of interest (in the period 1931–1945) has generally been interpreted as evidence that he was an eclectic economist who cherry-picked between marginal analysis and Marxian economics. However, a consistent and alternative interpretation becomes possible once we take into account that mainstream economic theory and Marxian economics constituted two halves of a unique scientific project which included a relevant critical dimension.
