B4 - Economic MethodologyReturn

In 1919 the town of Brno became a higher education centre. The twenty years' tradition of the Czech Technical University in Brno, where Karel Engliš, an Albín Bráf's pupil, worked from 1911, was followed by new established universities in Brno, Masaryk University and Czechoslovak University of Agriculture. It was the Faculty of Law at Masaryk University, where the economic education was systematically developed. The economic theory here vas based on Engliš's teleological method. The role of Masaryk University, as well as of Karel Engliš, is recorded and processed in detail. However, the fact that remarkable personalities engaged in economic education at Czechoslovak University of Agriculture as well stayed away from attention. The article presents economic opinions of Emanuel Schidler, another Albín Bráf's pupil, who remained faithful to the historical method.
