Is The Limits of Economics in the public domain?
Believed so. US works published between 1932 and 1963 kept copyright past 28 years only if someone filed a renewal, and no renewal for this work was found in the Catalog of Copyright Entries. That is a search result rather than a legal opinion: a renewal filed under a shortened title or a different claimant would not have been found. Some copies carry a rights notice, which records the original claim and does not extend a term that lapsed.
Who wrote The Limits of Economics?
Oskar Morgenstern (1902–1977) was a Görlitz-born Austrian-German economist who studied under Hans Mayer in Vienna, took his doctorate in 1925, and succeeded Friedrich Hayek as director of the Austrian Institute for Business Cycle Research. This archive holds 2 of Morgenstern's works.
