[HPS_EST] CfP: SI on Logical Empiricism and Austrian Economics

*Call for Papers* *Studies in History and Philosophy of Science* *Special Issue: Adverse Allies: Hidden Harmonies Between Logical Empiricism and Austrian Economics* Logical empiricism and Austrian economics are arguably the two internationally most influential intellectual movements with Viennese roots. The Vienna Circle and the Viennese School of economics have shaped the world-wide development of philosophical, methodological, scientific, and political debate. Yet, despite numerous connections and interactions between the two movements, their relationship has captured surprisingly sparse attention in historical and philosophical scholarship. If an account is provided at all, logical empiricists and Austrian economists are portrayed as philosophically, scientifically, and politically antithetical groups. Recent scholarship has challenged this received view of opposition by reconstructing hitherto neglected compatibilities and similarities between the two movements. This special issue collects historical as well as systematic contributions that highlight and discuss hidden harmonies between logical empiricism and Austrian economics while acknowledging remaining disagreements. Contributions that fruitfully inform contemporary debates in philosophy, methodology, politics, or the sciences are particularly welcome.
