Encyclopedia : F : FR : FRA : Franz Böhm

Franz Böhm (* 16 February 1895 Konstanz, Germany; † 26 September 1977 Rockenberg) was a German politician, lawyer, and economist.

Böhm studied law in Freiburg, where he became professor in 1933. He was associated to the resistance movement in Nazi Germany and survived only because of a confusion of names.

Böhm developed together with Walter Eucken and Hans Großmann-Doerth the concept of Ordoliberalism and was an important proponent of the "social market economy".
