Hans Großmann-Doerth was one of the founding members of the Freiburg School. One of the central themes for Großmann-Doerth, and for the other members of the Freiburg School as well, was the question of private power in a free society. In 1936/37, along with Franz Böhm and Walter Eucken, he founded the series “Ordnung der Wirschaft”, whose publication is often regarded as the “birth of the Freiburg School”. The purpose of this volume is to remember the life and works of Hans Großmann-Doerth.

There is also a reprint of Großmann-Doerth’s impressive inaugural lecture “The Self-produced Law of the Business Community” as well as excerpts of his correspondence.
