Volume 5, No. 3 (Fall 2002)
The editors have decided to devote the bulk of Volume 5, Number 3, Fall 2002 Quarterly Journal of Austrian Economics to articles by F.A. Hayek, Eugen von Böhm-Bawerk, and Frédéric Bastiat. The articles by Hayek and Böhm-Bawerk were very recently translated from German by Marcellus Snow and George Reisman, respectively, and feature introductions by their translators. The article by Bastiat originally appeared in English in 1877 in a long-forgotten volume of Bastiat’s essays and was rediscovered, fittingly enough, by our own book review editor, Mark Thornton, who also penned an introductory article for the piece. While the introductions to each article provide the contextual details and evaluate the importance of these articles, a few words by way of general introduction to each article by the journal’s editors does not seem inappropriate.
