F.A. von Hayek is one of the most prominent economists of the past century whose work has been highly influential not only in economics but in the social sciences more generally. The essays in this volume give the reader a representative overview of the key subjects which F.A. von Hayek dealt with in the six decades of his active scholarly life. The contributions selected address fundamental epistemological and methodological problems in social science, deal with the history of ideas which form the background of current theoretical dispute, discuss fundamental issues pertaining to the theory of social order and the development of social institutions, and examine the potential and the limits of the deliberate control of economic and social conditions.
