Dear Dr. Block,

My understanding is Austrian and neoclassical economists believe that equilibrium price is determined by supply and demand curves.  Thus, all Austrians are neoclassicals in that sense.  Is this the case with you?

Sincerely,

Jeffrey Stewart

Dear Jeffrey:

I use S and D curves as heuristic devices, but, here’s my view of them:
