Abstract
Ludwig M. Lachmann is well known for his embrace of certain aspects of Max Weber’s sociological work. While subjectivism in value theory is often regarded as a distinctive Austrian insight, the attempt to understand the content of subjective purposes is largely associated with historical and sociological perspectives.
