Retort to Wiśniewski on Evictionism and Praxeology
Wiśniewski (2025) takes on a Herculean task. It is not quite as difficult drawing a square circle, but it almost belongs in that realm. This scholar’s target is to erase the gigantic and totally justified chasm that exists between the normative and the positive realms of discourse. His thesis is that Austrian praxeology can at least shed light on the abortion controversy, if not actually solve it. I cannot believe that his claim is true; but we can all learn from his valiant attempt. I am in awe of anyone who would even endeavor to establish such a momentous intellectual breakthrough.
