When pointing out a source in a page of a book (in the form of a footer) do I write the place where it was edited and the date before or after I point out the page?
e.g.
Either, "The Best of 4chan", (New York, NY: Meme Press, 2015) pp. 21-23
OR
"The Best of 4chan", page 21-23 (New York, NY: Meme Press, 2015)

If using Chicago follow http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide.html
If Chicago, you only do the full citation the first time, and then a different format in the bibliography

English professor here.
For your specific question, the first way, with pages last.
But you've got a number of other errors of form in your examples.
APA, Chicago and (an important one not mentioned) MLA are style sheets for academic publishing that set the rules for this sort of thing. Google them and find sites that will give examples of proper form.

Not that guy, but you don't have to cite section or chapter unless in special situations. Your job is to give people the basic information they need to look up your reference. If you're giving a page number, it's fine.
I would only cite sections/passages in cases where it's really famous and traditionally divided into sections, especially if there are many different translations of it. Or if the section is really relevant to the citation.
I am writing an essay right now where I cited sections of Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit (but still gave the translation I'm working from, in the first citation), and I just cite sections, because they're uniform across translations. But I'm also citing from an anthology of Foucault's essays, and I'm not bothering to cite from individual essays, just giving page numbers as if it's a single book.
Again the idea isn't to be exhaustive, it's to let people check your sources.

So I don't need to put the Sections, Chapters, etc. in it? Do I keep that to the bibliography?
Can I just put
Ludwig Von Mises, “Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis” (New Haven, Conn.: Yale University Press, 1962) p. 113 ?

Seems like it, though because it's a book, the title would be in italics and not quotes. Articles go in quotes.
One author
First citation: Michael Pollan, [i]The Omnivore’s Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals[/i] (New York: Penguin, 2006), 99–100.
Subsequent citations: Pollan, Omnivore’s Dilemma, 3.
Bibliography: Pollan, Michael. [i]The Omnivore’s Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals.[/i] New York: Penguin, 2006.

Oh, and by the way, do I use "" or «» to refer to specific terms? For example: "praxeology" or «praxeology»? Or do I only use the latter "" symbols on the footnotes (since I intend on using those smaller-font text boxes for quotes in the main text)?
