Hayek, Co-ordination and Evolution

Following the revival of Hayek's reputation as an economist, political philosopher and intellectual historian, this book shows why this revival has taken place, with contributions and critical assessments from internationally known scholars.
Recent years have witnessed a remarkable revival in Hayek's reputation as an economist, a political philosopher, and an intellectual historian. "Hayek, Co-ordination and Evolution" shows why this revival has taken place by demonstrating the continuing relevance and vitality of Hayek's ideas. A group of internationally known scholars critically assess his contribution to economics, political philosophy, legal theory, cognitive psychology, the philosophy of science and the history of ideas. Dealing with the development of Hayek's work chronologically, it begins with Hayek's work in economics. The later extension of Hayek's ideas into social and political philosophy produced the works for which he is most widely known, "The Road to Serfdom" and "The Constitution of Liberty".
