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., Leipsic, 1890), he followed in the steps of the author of "Looking Backward".

He was a friend of Johannes Brahms.

Literary works

Other works by Hertzka are:

  • "Die Mängel des Oesterreichischen Aktiengesetzentwurfs," Vienna, 1875;
  • "Das Wesen des Geldes," Leipsic, 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 Personen verkehr der Eisenbahnen," Vienna, 1885;
