Human Action: A Treatise on Economics is the Magnum opus of the Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises. It presents a case for Laissez-faire Capitalism based on Mises' Praxeology, or rational investigation of human decision-making. It rejects Positivism within Economics. It defends an a priori Epistemology and underpins praxeology with a foundation of Methodological individualism and laws of apodictic certainty. Mises argues that the free-market economy not only outdistances any government-planned system, but ultimately serves as the foundation of civilization itself.
Nationalökonomie: Theorie Des Handelns und Wirtschaftens is the 1940 German-language predecessor to Human Action.
