About this person

Kurt Wilhelm Rothschild was a well known Austrian born economist. He lectured at the University of Glasgow (1938-1947), worked as a researcher at the Austrian Economic Research Institute (1947-1966) and was one founding fathers of the University of Linz, working there from 1966 until 1985. His work in economics was wide ranging running from contributions to microeconomic and macroeconomic theory and history of economic thought to questions of both economic methodology and economic policy. Throughout his career, he advocated pluralism in economics and took a critical approach to what came to be termed neoliberalism and he has been described as a Heterodox or as a Keynesian economist.
