Economics is often used in literary studies, but rarely free market economics. Austrian economics, with its emphasis on subjective value (Menger), human action (Mises), spontaneous order and knowledge (Hayek), and entrepreneurship (Kirzner), seems a particularly fruitful source of ideas for literary studies.

Literary Analysis at Cato Unbound
The literary analysis is getting thick over at Cato Unbound, with pieces by William H. Patterson and Frederick Turner. The latter was on my dissertation committee, and remains a friend. Finally, there is a response by Amy Sturgis. Plenty of good stuff to read and think about!
And there's also a lot of followup here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here.
All is not lost.
