----------------- HES POSTING ----------------- Another Austrian site which is well worth a look is Chris Sciabarra's. Chris is the author of 'Marx, Hayek and Utopia', 'Ayn Rand: the Russian Radical', 'Total Freedom', and editor of the Rand journal, so his Austrian/libertarian credentials are impeccable. At the same time, his is critical of some internal strands in Austrian economics/philosophy (such as the Rothbardian stream), and can see links with other traditions which other Austrians do not necessarily perceive--for instance, in 'Marx, Hayek and Utopia', Chris argues that Hayek's philosophy was essentially dialectical, and also that his free-market preferred world was as utopian (and therefore as flawed in construction) as Marx's non-market vision.
