Vliv německé historické školy na české ekonomické myšlení
The influence of the german historical school on the czech economic thought
The article is concerned with the influence that the German historical school had on the Czech economic thought. There is analysed life and work of four most important representatives of the Czech economic thought in 19th century. It is shown that František Chleborad distanced from the German school because of patriotic feelings, on the other hand, Josef Kaizl was an enthusiastic adherent of the German school. Albín Bráf attempted to make a compromise between the German's tradition and the Austrian's one. Jan Koloušek rehabilitated the German approach when he criticized the Austrian school. In each case, without knowledge about the German historical school, understanding of the development of the Czech economic thought would stay limited and uncompleted.
Keywords: German Historical School, Austrian School of Economics, Czech economic thought, methodology of economics, patriotism
