Two (related) things I have learned from (or that have been reinforced by) the "hermeneutic Austrians" (Lachmann school Austrians at GMU and NYU):
1. read others "generously" though critically 2. humility about one's own position the first was known by grad students at NYU during Lachmann's times as "Lachmann's Law": especially when reading work of an alternative school of thought, one should "try to make the most sense of what is being read."
