货币在市场过程中发挥着类似社会中的语言的沟通理解功能。奥地利学派为理解货币作为一种社会性交换媒介如何使得货币价格执行了市场中的记号指示功能提供了理论工具。正如以相同的方式言说和书写才使得社会中的不同个体之间相互理解有了可能,同质的货币及价格体系使得不同经济行动者之间得以沟通与理解,从而形成一种有序的市场过程。货币、语言与市场过程的内在关联彰显出经济学的解释学维度。 Money plays a communication and understanding function similar to the language in society in the market. The Austrian school provides a theoretical tool for understanding how currency as a social exchange medium enables currency prices to function as a signpost in the marketplace. Just as speaking and writing in the same way makes it possible for different individuals in society to understand each other, a homogeneous currency and price system enables communication and understanding among different economic actors and thus forms an orderly market process. The intrinsic connection between money, language and market processes highlights the hermeneutical dimension of economics.
