Rand vs Kant --> Mises re. Hobbe on epistemology / praxeology?

Miscellaneous General

Randians, as I understand them, like to blame Kant for all the wrong economic thought in the world. Can you recommend a work that covers this seeminly core disagreement between Randians and Austrians? Mises.org’s media on H.H.Hobbe’s praxeology/epistemology stuff caught me by surprise so far taking Rand’s word for it that Kant is thorougly evil, etc. I’m not at all calling Rand an economist, and in this way they are in wholely different realms, but the fact that Hobbes sees Kant as Right on epistemology, I think is an important contrast to Rand. I could try to read ITOE and Kant’s CPR and compare, contrast, but that would be a major chore which I’m not sure I’m up to.

Thanks!

I’d read ITOE anyway. Also read Geoffrey A. Plauche’s paper on Aristotelianism and praxeology, I think it’s in the reading list.

Thank you! Plauche’s paper is exactly what I was looking for.
