In the 1880s [[Carl Menger]] and Gustav von Schmoller, leader of the German Historical School, argued over whether economics had any theoretical content at all. Schmoller&#039;s school held that economic knowledge could only be gathered inductively from the historical record of each nation and epoch; Menger held that there were universal laws of value and exchange that no amount of historical detail could establish or overturn.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
