Zusammenfassung

Karl Polanyi war in jungen Jahren Zeitzeuge der vielschichtigen ökonomischen, sozialen und politischen Umwälzungen in der österreichisch-ungarischen Donaumonarchie. 1886 in Wien geboren, wuchs er in Budapest auf, wo er Rechtswissenschaft und Philosophie studierte, um dann nach der Zerschlagung der ungarischen Räterepublik nach Wien zurückzukehren. Dort schrieb er für die wirtschaftspolitische Wochenzeitschrift „Österreichischer Volkswirt“.
