THEODOR HERTZKA
'Theodor Hertzka', or 'Hertzka Tivadar' (July 13, 1845, Budapest-1924, Wiesbaden) was a Hungarian-Austrian economist and journalist.
He studied at the universities of Vienna and Budapest, and in 1872 became a member of the editorial staff of the ''Neue Freie Presse'' of Vienna. In 1879 he founded the ''Wiener Allgemeine Zeitung'', which he edited until 1886.
Hertzka has been called the "Austrian Bellamy", because in his ''Freiland, ein soziales Zukunftsbild'' (3d ed., Leipzig, 1890), he followed in the steps of the author of ''Looking Backward''.
He was a friend of Johannes Brahms.
Other works by Hertzka are:
★ ''Die Mängel des österreichischen Aktiengesetzentwurfs,'' Vienna, 1875;
★ ''Das Wesen des Geldes,'' Leipzig, 1887
(in which he recommended the introduction of the gold standard in Austria);
★ ''Die Gesetze der Handelspolitik,'' ib. 1880;
★ ''Das Personenporto: Ein Vorschlag zur Durchführung eines billigen Einheitstarifs im Personenverkehr der Eisenbahnen,'' Vienna, 1885;
★ ''Die Gesetze der sozialen Entwickelung,'' Leipzig, 1886;
★ ''Wechselkurs und Agio,'' Vienna, 1894
