Der Bruch der Theorie in der Praxis durch Not

Some Remarks on Lujo Brentano's View of Labor Market Problems Lujo
Brentano (1844-1931) aimed for "realism" in economics. Regarding
labor market theory, two topics are of particular interest: His
investigations on "Hours and Wages in Relation to Production"
(Scribner's 1894) and his analysis "On the History and Development
of Gilds and the Origins of Trade Unions" (Trubner 1870). The
topics of are discussed with a view on recent developments in labor
economics.
