AB  - Avusturya İktisat Okulu (AİO), on dokuzuncu yüzyılın sonlarında Carl Menger tarafından kurulmuş ve insan eylemi merkezli bir ekonomik yaklaşım geliştirmiştir. AİO’nun metodolojisi, ana akım neoklasik iktisattan farklılaşarak subjektivizm, metodolojik bireycilik ve praksiyoloji gibi temel ilkeler üzerine inşa edilmiştir. AİO’nun temel argümanı, iktisadi analizlerin bireylerin öznel tercihleri ve dinamik planlamaları üzerinden gerçekleştirilmesi gerektiğidir. Matematiksel modelleme yerine, nedensel analiz ve sözel mantık, Avusturya yaklaşımının temel araçlarıdır.Bu çalışma, AİO’nun metodolojik özgünlüğünü, neoklasik iktisatla arasındaki temel farkları ele almaktadır. AİO’nun düşünce yapısı, sadece ekonomik analizlere değil, aynı zamanda disiplinler arası çalışmalara da ilham kaynağı olmuştur. İnsan davranışlarının karmaşıklığını ve öngörülemezliğini merkeze alan bu yaklaşım, modern iktisadi düşüncenin evriminde önemli bir dönüm noktasıdır.

N2  - The Austrian School of Economics (ASE) was founded in the late nineteenth century by Carl Menger and developed an economic approach centered on human action. The methodology of the ASE diverges from mainstream neoclassical economics and is built upon fundamental principles such as subjectivism, methodological individualism, and praxeology The core argument of the ASE is that economic analyses should be conducted based on subjective preferences and dynamic planning of individuals. Instead of mathematical modeling, causal analysis and verbal logic are the primary tools of the Austrian approach.This study examines the methodological distinctiveness of the ASE and its fundamental differences from neoclassical economics. The intellectual framework of the Austrian School has inspired not only economic analyses but also interdisciplinary studies. By placing the complexity and unpredictability of human behavior at its core, this approach represents a significant turning point in the evolution of modern economic thought.
