Note 825 — Chapter I · : THE HISTORICAL SCHOOL AND THE CONFLICT OF METHODS
R. (Robert) Richards translation
Cf. Menger, loc. cit., pp. 130 et seq. Marshall’s ironical remark is very apposite here: “German economists have done good service by insisting on this class of consideration, but they seem to be mistaken in supposing that it was overlooked by the older English economists.” (Principles, Book I, chap. 6, note.)
