	Friedrich Hayek - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Friedrich August von Hayek (May 8, 1899 in Vienna– March 23, 1992 in Freiburg) was an Austrian economist and political philosopher, noted for his defense of liberal democracy and free-market capitalism against socialist and collectivist thought in the mid-20th century.
		Hayek viewed the price mechanism, not as a conscious invention (that which is intentionally designed by man), but as spontaneous order, or what is referred to as "that which is the result of human action but not of human design".
		Hayek was born in Vienna to a Catholic family of prominent intellectuals.

	FRIEDRICH AUGUST VON HAYEK
		In tackling the evolution of political, social, legal and economic institutions, Hayek is rightly conceived as one of the founding fathers of "evolutionary economics".
		Hayek's efforts were nonetheless ignored in the Keynesian mainstream which then dominated economics.
		At the L.S.E., Hayek was instrumental in furthering its then-novel "continental" bent and he was highly influential on his junior colleagues (such as Hicks) and students (which included Lerner and Kaldor).

	FRIEDRICH A. HAYEK
		Friedrich August von Hayek (1899-), a central figure in twentieth-century economics and foremost representative of the Austrian tradition, 1974 Nobel laureate in Economics, a prolific author not only in the field of economics but also in the fields of political philosophy, psychology, and epistemology, was born in Vienna, Austria on May 8, 1899.
		Hayek soon came to be a vigorous participant in the debates that raged in England during the 1930s concerning monetary, capital, and business-cycle theories and was a major figure in the celebrated controversies with John Maynard Keynes, Piero Sraffa, and Frank H. Knight.
		Hayek integrated his own developments in these fields into a cohesive account of a market process that tends towards intertemporal coordination and of central-bank policies that can interfere with that process in such a way as to cause artificial economic booms which are inevitably followed by economic busts.

	Friedrich A. Hayek
		Hayek's personal and professional relationship with Popper, whom he helped in his career, was somewhat ironic considering that Hayek was a cousin of the philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951), with whom Popper disagreed on almost every conceivable philosophical issue.
		Hayek thus shared with Hume a profound conviction that we should be "sensible of our ignorance." Hayek also shared with Hume the conviction that the "foundation of the inference" to propositions of ethics or politics was not necessarily available to us.
		Hayek's theory in that respect, however, reflected Karl Popper's view that propositions of ethics or politics can be tested with the same mechanism of falsification used by scientific method.

		Hayek (1899-1992), recipient of the Medal of Freedom in 1991 and co-winner of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics in 1974, was a pioneer in monetary theory and the principal proponent of libertarianism in the twentieth century.
		Hayek shows that the only difference is the degree of benevolence of those leading the two countries; he also shows that, once arbitrary power is handed over, it usually cannot be regained.
		Hayek's thesis was that central economic planning will inevitably lead to governmental control of every facet of its citizen's life, and hence toward a totalitarian state.

		Hayek further developed his thinking about a rule of law in his trilogy Law, Legislation and Liberty which consists of Rules and Order (1973), The Mirage of Social Justice (1976) and The Political Order of a Free People (1979).
		During the 1930s, Hayek taught at the London School of Economics and, reflecting Mises' influence, wrote a number of books making the case that the boom/bust cycle was caused by government manipulation of money and credit.
		Expanding on Mises' insights, Hayek explained that the knowledge needed for a successful society is dispersed in the minds of millions, and socialist economic planners could never access enough of it to make good decisions.

		FRIEDRICH A. ama-gi: LSE's Hayek Society Journal, vol.
		Not long after Hayek delivered the 1931 lectures, however, he became aware of all the modifications and qualifications that would be required for his analytics to capture the many features of the economy's capital structure and hence to better serve as a basis for theorizing about the production process.
		Hayek considered it too obvious to have to prove that there is a capital structure—a structure that can be modified but not instantly and not costlessly.
