Mises in China, 18th Nov., 2010.

Professor Hwang, of the National Tsinghua University, wrote on von Mises' influence on Chinese academics in his article "出版米塞斯巨著《人类行为的经济学分析》的当前意义 [The Immediate Significance of Publishing Mises' Magnum Opus, Human Action.]"

He believes Mainlanders are more eager for free markets and libertarianism, and points to the fact that many of the theory's leading books have only been published in jianti (simplified) characters. Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged was published in Chongqing before Taiwan.
