F A Hayek (1899-1992) was awarded the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in 1974 and the Medal of Freedom in 1991 and was one of the leading Austrian economists and political philosophers of the twentieth century.
This 10th volume of his complete works documents economist Hayek's
(1899-1992) lonely battle against socialism during the 1930s and
1940s. The material includes his debates with the market
socialists, chiefly in British academic journals of the 1930s; his
responses to the onset of World War II, mostly as short articles in
weeklies and in book reviews; and later academic papers examining
the relationship between economic planning and freedom. An appendix
presents many of the reviews of the literature on capitalism and
the varieties of socialism he wrote during the period.
