The Road to Serfdom
By Friedrich Hayek
Categories: Business & Money, Politics & Social Sciences
Written in Britain during World War II, Friedrich Hayek's classic argues that central economic planning, however well-intentioned, erodes individual liberty: because a planned economy requires concentrating economic decisions in the state, it also concentrates political power and leads toward tyranny. This Definitive Edition, edited by Bruce Caldwell for the University of Chicago Press's Collected Works of F. A. Hayek, includes Hayek's forewords to later editions and related documents.
