If he's claiming The Use of Knowledge in Society (1942) isn't about economics, then you have a very narrow view of economics. I mention it only because this essay was such a major contribution.

To take your example, Section 3.1 critiques The Use of Knowledge in Society via a critique of Human Action (which was published by Mises nearly a decade after 1942). Many of the observations in Section 3 (and 3.1 especially) are directly relevant to The Use of Knowledge in Society.
