F.A. Hayek (1899-1992) was a Nobel Prize-winning economist, famous for his defence
of 'classical liberalism'. In this second volume of Hayek : a collaborative biography
archival material is juxtaposed with Hayek's published work to bring a new perspective
to the life and times of one the of 20th century's most influential economists. This
study examines Hayek's life from 1899 to 1933, covering his time in Austria, the influence
of the 'Psychology School', his first trip to the USA, 1923-1924, his arrival at the
London School of Economics and his early encounters with John Maynard Keynes. Meanwhile
in the background lurked the Great Depression and the rise of Hitler. For rhetorical
purposes, Keynes challenged attacked Pigou and 'classical economics'; and Hayek challenged
attacked Pigou while invoking the authority of 'classical liberalism'. Why did Hayek
also defend the 'civilisation' of apartheid against the 'fashion' of 'human rights'?
The archival evidence reveals that Hayek's 'Great Society of Free Men' was consistent
with neo-feudalism: serfdom, slavery and domestic servitude
