Nicky Taylor asked if anyone had read Adolph Wagner, critiqued by Marx in
his "Notes on Wagner".

I can't claim to have read Wagner, but there is some interesting background
material on him in Ian Hacking's "Taming of Chance" (1990; page 130).

It seems that Wagner started as a laissez-faire economist, but was converted
to Kethedersozialismus around 1870.
