A Bibliography on Austrian Price Theory

Since I have been concerned with Post Keynesian price theory in recent months, here below is a short bibliography of Austrian price theory for the interested reader.

Austrian price theory – like the worst forms of neoclassical price theory – is flawed by its inability to understand real world administered price setting and the consequences of this.
