Bernard Bolzano - Utopian Visionary

Pavel Sirůček and Jaroslav Šetek

Acta Oeconomica Pragensia, 2019, vol. 2019, issue 3-4, 95-104

Abstract: Bernard Bolzano was not merely a mathematician of the European format. He was also a critical social thinker whose work has distinct economic dimensions. This is why he rightly appears in the overviews of the beginnings of Czech economic thought. He began writing his work "About the Best State" 210 years ago, which made him the most famous Czech utopian. The half-forgotten Bolzano legacy, which is still alive and ahead of its time in many respects, recalls this text.
