Rooted in the tradition of Austrian-born economists Carl Menger, Ludwig von Mises, and F.A. Hayek, “Austrian” economics is not a specific field within economics, nor is it a set of conclusions. It is a different approach to understanding the social reality that dissents from the mainstream method, theory, and policy. The Austrian School of Economics promotes economic and social thinking that is not trapped in mathematical models only. The analysis focuses on autonomous entrepreneurial action and the free interaction of individuals in the marketplace.
The Austrian school of economics promotes economic and social thinking that is not confined to unrealistic, mostly mathematical models. The analysis focuses on autonomous entrepreneurial action and the free interaction of individuals in the marketplace.

This online program introduces participants to the principles of the Austrian School of Economics. AES aims to equip the participants with tools and principles based on sound economic theories that they can apply in analyzing policies.
The AES will illustrate the fundamental theoretical insights of the Austrian school of economics in an introductory way and show the usefulness of these insights in terms of their relevance to creating either prosperity and freedom or poverty and oppression in India.
There would be at least 2 two hour sessions (A morning session and an Evening Session) on each of the days.
