    For over a generation, the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern and Central Europe delegitimized the abolition of private property in the means of production and the practice of central planning as an effective way to achieve the ends of socialism. However, the aspiration of achieving the ends of socialism remains to this day. This Element provides a narrative of a century-long ... Read more

    Friedrich A. Hayek

    A Very Short Introduction

    by Peter Boettke, M. Scott King ...
    Narrated by Mitch Crawford ...

    Unabridged

    5 hours 15 min

    Friedrich A. Hayek (1899-1992) was one of the twentieth century's most influential thinkers in economics, political philosophy, and social theory. His work ranged from technical macroeconomics and studies of the epistemic functions of markets, to a strident defense of liberalism and forays into evolutionary anthropology. This scholarly breadth may come at a cost: Hayek's work feels so varied as to ... Read more

    by Peter J. Boettke, Jaime L. Carini, Edgar V. Cook, Lachezar Grudev, Florian A. Hartjen, Craig Lyons, Casey Pender, Samuel Schmitt, Abigail Staysa, Kayleigh Thompson0, Erwin Dekker1, Chad Van Schoelandt3 ...
    Series series Economy, Polity, and Society
    This volume explores the political economy and social philosophy of F. A. Hayek as they relate to social change. Arguably one limitation of Hayek’s social philosophy is that he, as some of his contemporaries quipped, does not know the words “for example.” This means that much of his work on social philosophy is relatively abstract and hard to approach. This might also explain why it has taken so ... Read more

  • Money and the Rule of Law

    Generality and Predictability in Monetary Institutions

    by Peter J. Boettke, Alexander William Salter, Daniel J. Smith ...
    Contemporary monetary institutions are flawed at a foundational level. The reigning paradigm in monetary policy holds up constrained discretion as the preferred operating framework for central banks. But no matter how smart or well-intentioned are central bankers, discretionary policy contains information and incentive problems that make macroeconomic stability systematically unlikely. Furthermore ... Read more
