HAYEK A. FRIEDRICH

Ο ΔΡΟΜΟΣ ΠΡΟΣ ΤΗ ΔΟΥΛΕΙΑ
"Ο δρόμος προς τη δουλεία" παραμένει ένα από τα κλασικά βιβλία της σκέψης του 20ού αιώνα. Για πάνω από 50 χρόνια, έχει εμπνεύσει πολιτικούς και στοχαστές σε όλο τον κόσμο, ασκώντας κομβική επίδραση στην πολιτική και πολιτισμική μας ιστορία. Με χαρακτηριστική ευφυΐα, ο Χάγιεκ υποστηρίζει πειστικά ότι παρόλο που οι σοσιαλιστικές ιδέες μπορεί να είναι δελεαστικές, δεν μπορούν να υλοποιηθούν παρά μόνο με μέσα ανελεύθερα και καταπιεστικά. Με εκτενείς αναφορές στην οικονομία, τον φασισμό, την ιστορία, τον σοσιαλισμό και το Ολοκαύτωμα, ο Χάγιεκ α...

(P/B) THE CONSTITUTION OF LIBERTY
Working after the war, Hayek's writing was very much against the tide of mainstream Keynesian economic thought. But in the 1970s and 1980s - the eras of Thatcherism and Reaganomics - he was championed as a prophet of neo-liberalism by those who were seeking to revolutionize the post-war social consensus. THE CONSTITUTION OF LIBERTY is crucial reading for all those seeking to understand ideas that have become the orthodoxy in the age of the globalized economy. (From the publisher)...

(P/B) THE ROAD TO SERFDOM
The Road to Serfdom remains one of the all-time classics of twentieth-century intellectual thought. For over half a century, it has inspired politicians and thinkers around the world, and has had a crucial impact on our political and cultural history. With trademark brilliance, Hayek argues convincingly that, while socialist ideals may be tempting, they cannot be accomplished except by means that few would approve of. Addressing economics, fascism, history, socialism and the Holocaust, Hayek unwraps the trappings of socialist ideology. He ...

(P/B) LAW, LEGISLATION AND LIBERTY
Law, Legislation and Liberty is Hayek's major statement of political philosophy and one of the most ambitious yet subtle defences of a free market society ever written. A robust defence of individual liberty, it is also crucial for understanding Hayek's influential views concerning the role of the state: far from being an innocent bystander, he argues that the state has an important role to play in defending the norms and practices of an ordered and free society. His arguments had a profound influence on the policies of Thatcher in the 198...

ΤΟ ΣΥΝΤΑΓΜΑ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΙΑΣ
Στο κορυφαίο ίσως αυτό σύγγραμμά του, ο Αυστριακός-Βρετανός οικονομολόγος και πολιτειολόγος Φρίντριχ Α. Χάγιεκ -βραβείο Νόμπελ Οικονομίας 1974- συστηματοποιεί τα επιχειρήματά του υπέρ της κοινωνικής οργάνωσης που στηρίζεται στην ατομική πρωτοβουλία και την οικονομία της αγοράς. Αξιοποιεί συγγενείς ιδέες από τα πεδία της οικονομικής, κοινωνικής και νομικής θεωρίας, αλλά και της ηθικής φιλοσοφίας και της εξελικτικής ανθρωπολογίας, για να προβάλει το θεμελιώδη χαρακτήρα της αξίας της ελευθερίας. Το έργο είναι πυκνό, καθώς σχεδόν κάθε πρότασή ...

(P/B) GOOD MONEY (PART II)
This complementary volume provides five additional essays to expand our understanding of Hayek's ideas about money and monetary policy. Good Money, Part II: The Standard investigates the consequences of the "predicament of composition" which led to one of Hayek's most controversial proposals: that governments should be denied a monopoly on the coining of money.
