Dr. Josef Steindl
JURIICULUM VITAL.
I was born in Vienna on the 14th of April 1912. From
1922 to 1929 I attended the Realschule 19. in Vienna. I studied at
the Hochschule fuer Welthandel during the years 1930 to 1935. In
1935 I received a degree of doctor of commerce; ny doctor's thesis
dealt with monetary equilibrium, chiefly with the monetary theories
of the Austrian School.
In July 1935, I entered the Austrian Institute for trade
cycle research which was directed by Prof. Oskar Morgenstern, as a
scientific collaborator. My work there was of a more practical nature
and I acquired a certain experience in the field of practical business
cycle research. I wrote parts of the monthly reports on the economic
position in Austria and abroad that were $ssued by the Institute. Be-
sides I wrote special reports on prices and other questions of econo-
mic policVe
My chief interest ‘has always been in economic theory,
especially trade cycle theory and also methodological questions. I
published the following articless
Der historische Regress in der Theorie der Produktionsumwege |
Tahrbuecher fuer Nationaloekonomie und Statistik.Band 145, Febr «£7 o
Der Kon junkturzyklus. Zeitschrift fuer Nationaloekonomie. Vol VIII,37.
Prosperitaet und Depression. Zeitschrift fuer das Bankwesen. (Wien)1937,
and several articles in the weekly economic paper Der .
sesterreichische Volkswirt. I translated a book of Mr. Austin Robin-
sons (The Structure of Competitive Industry) into German.
I can read English (as well as French), but I do not
speak it fluently. I trust, however, that 1% would not take me long
to speak quite well.
| During the time of my connection with the Institute,
that is since 1935, I attended the seminar of Profs. Morgenstern and
gtrigl at the University as well as the private discussions that were
held at the Institute, and I read papers on various problems of eco-
nomic theorva.
For a very short time (in Spring 1937) I also delivered
lectures on monetary questions in a Worker's University (Volkshoch=-
schule) in Vienna.
