Friedrich August Hayek CH (German pronunciation: [ˈfʁiːdʁɪç ˈaʊ̯ɡʊst ˈhaɪ̯ɛk]) (8 May 1899 – 23 March 1992), born in Austria-Hungary as Friedrich August von Hayek, was an economist and philosopher best known for his defense of classical liberalism and free-market capitalism against socialist and collectivist thought. In 1974, Hayek shared the Nobel Prize in Economics for his "pioneering work in the theory of money and economic fluctuations and... penetrating analysis of the interdependence of economic, social and institutional phenomena."
Hayek is considered to be one of the most important economists and political philosophers of the twentieth century.Along with his mentor Ludwig von Mises, he was an important contributor to the Austrian school of economic thought. Hayek's account of how changing prices communicate information which enable individuals to coordinate their plans is widely regarded as an important achievement in economics.He also contributed to the fields of systems thinking, jurisprudence, neuroscience and the history of ideas.
Hayek served in World War I and said that his experience in the war and his desire to help avoid the mistakes that had led to the war (see below) led him to his career. Hayek lived in Austria, Great Britain, the United States and Germany, and became a British subject in 1938. He spent most of his academic life at the London School of Economics (LSE), the University of Chicago, and the University of Freiburg.
In 1984, he was appointed as a member of the Order of the Companions of Honour by Queen Elizabeth II on the advice of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher for his "services to the study of economics." He also received the US Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1991 from president George H. W. Bush. In 2011, his article The Use of Knowledge in Society was selected as one of the top 20 articles published in the American Economic Review during its first 100 years.

An unimpeachable classic work in political philosophy, intellectual and cultural history, and economics, The Road to Serfdom has inspired and infuriated politicians, scholars, and general readers for half a century. Originally published in 1944—when Eleanor Roosevelt supported the efforts of Stalin, and Albert Einstein subscribed lock, stock, and barrel to the socialist program— The Road to Serfdom was seen as heretical for its passionate warning against the dangers of state control over the means of production. For F. A. Hayek, the collectivist idea of empowering government with increasing economic control would lead not to a utopia but to the horrors of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy.
First published by the University of Chicago Press on September 18, 1944, The Road to Serfdom garnered immediate, widespread attention. The first printing of 2,000 copies was exhausted instantly, and within six months more than 30,000 books were sold. In April 1945, Reader’s Digest published a condensed version of the book, and soon thereafter the Book-of-the-Month Club distributed thisedition to more than 600,000 readers. A perennial best seller, the book has sold 400,000 copies in the United States alone and has been translated into more than twenty languages, along the way becoming one of the most important and influential books of the century.
With this new edition, The Road to Serfdom takes its place in the series TheCollected Works of F. A. Hayek. The volume includes a foreword byseries editor and leading Hayek scholar Bruce Caldwell explaining the book's origins and publishinghistory and assessing common misinterpretations ofHayek's thought. Caldwell has also standardized and correctedHayek's references and added helpful new explanatory notes. Supplemented with an appendix of related materials ranging from prepublication reports on the initial manuscriptto forewords to earlier editions by John Chamberlain, Milton Friedman, and Hayek himself, this new edition of The Road to Serfdom will be the definitive version of Friedrich Hayek's enduring masterwork.
献给所有形式的悲观主义者。 (一) 《通往奴役之路》(通)的初版(1944)距今已近70年。最近大陆也推出了修订中文版,改正了之前翻译的不尽人意之处,并在卷首增加了韦森的导读。本书在当代政治观念史上占据极重要位置,这从它宣扬的理念——不管是以如何简陋与扭曲的样式...
评分好书,可惜读起来很累。但其中引用的一句话,我觉得非常好 “总是使一个国家变成人间地狱的东西,恰恰是人们试图将其变成天堂” 其实这句话在很多环境下都可以被套用,有多少人的悲剧就是发生在“我可是为了你好”的善意中?
评分哈耶克《通向奴役之路》新中文版导言 作者:韦森 “天有显道, 厥类惟彰。” ——《周书·泰誓》 在《通向奴役之路》第一章,弗里德里希·奥古斯特·冯·哈耶克(Friedrich August von Hayek)说:“观念的转变和人类意志的力量,塑造了今天的世界。”这句话寓意甚深,...
评分这是一本不算长,但我却没有完全欣赏到其伟大之处的著作。因为它“不是科学论文,而是通俗性著作”【Boering,6】,缺乏严谨性;而且或许也是战争时代的产物,那种紧张的时代氛围不复能为我所感知。因此虽然Hayek的自由至上主义【libertarianism】立场显露得清晰无余,但却缺...
评分我相信,假使有人如实、全面的向公众介绍哈耶克,那么这位学者必定为当代绝大多数中国人所谴责。 以中文网络上的书评来看,这本书的多数读者仅仅注意到了作者对经济控制的批判,以及对社会主义的否定——包括在欧洲大行其道的社会民主主义,而没有注意到他对行业监管、社会保...
