So, I thought it would be really useful to have a list of significant economic concepts in economics throughout the relevant schools of thought (Austrian, Monetarist, Keynesian, it's variying revisions, i.e. New Keynesianism, etc.). 

Additionally, besides listing the concepts, it would be nice to have discussions explaining them. If we can get to some substantial conclusions, maybe we can use that to update the Mises Wiki collaboratively (which I think has a ton of potential).

I'll get the listed started:

- Defecit Spending (Keynesian)

- Austrian Business Cycle Theory (Austrian)

- The Law of Marginal Utility 

- Comparative Advantage

 

I'll leave the rest to you guys...

 

Note: Mods, it would be nice if I or someone else could update the list over time.

Sounds akin to my project at LibertyHQ. The (mostly placeholder) econ page is here:

So far, I only have articles under the "topics in economics" section for healthcare. In fact, I stole the list from a Mises article :P
