Additional information
Editor’s Note: Ludwig von Mises published a French language version of this paper, translated from German by Gaston Leduc, in Revue d’économie politique in 1938 (97, no. 6:899–906). Mises himself wrote this English language version which was previously unpublished. In this article, he discusses the different elements of the case against using mathematical equations to solve the problem of economic calculation in socialism that were advanced by himself and F.A. Hayek. The editor would like to thank Grove City College for access to this manuscript and permission to publish it.
