From the beginning, the doctrine of neoliberalism reflected an intermingling with the needs. [fact]

The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) was an eco­nom­ ically internationalist body that sought to document and propagate the idea of a single world economy. The ICC gathered international economic statistics and advocated for the removal of barriers to trade and the ­free movement of capital. Immediately following the First World War and the dissolution of the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires, Mises and his circle thought it looked like a good partner. Mises himself was a delegate to the ICC, and the first generation of Austrian neoliberals all worked at the Vienna Chamber of Commerce. From the beginning, the doctrine of neoliberalism reflected an intermingling with the needs of its patrons in the business community.
