Book Description
Excerpt from On Political Economy, in Connexion With the Moral State and Moral Prospects of Society, Vol. 1 We have attempted in several ways to remedy the disadvantage of which we now complain. There are certain of the economical doctrines on which we have ventured to innovate; and on which, as being of chief scientific importance, we have bestowed a single and separate treatment in the articles of an Appendix, which form a series of distinct essays on various questions of the science. We have furthermore presented our doctrines in the form of a system, by arranging them, at the conclusion of the Appendix, into a sort of digest or synoptical view of our leading principles. In the present, which is the third edition of our work, we have subjoined brief notanda to each chapter; and this with the view of fastening the attention of the reader on such topics as possessed the greatest interest, either in themselves, or in the conclusions to which they lead. And we shall now bring this Preface to a close, by such a brief outline of our scheme, as might best prepare the reader for enter ing into the principles and design of the whole publication.

Book Description
A deft selection of unpublished and little-known works by F. A. Hayek that will serve to enlighten and enliven debates around the ever-changing face of Western liberalism Across seventeen volumes to date, the University of Chicago Press’s Collected Works of F. A. Hayek series has anthologized the diverse and prolific writings of the Austrian economist synonymous with classical liberalism. Essays on Liberalism and the Economy traces the author’s long and evolving writings on the cluster of beliefs he championed most: liberalism, its core tenets, and how its tradition represents the best hope for Western civilization. This volume contains material from almost the entire span of Hayek’s career, the earliest from 1931 and the last from 1984. The works were written for a variety of purposes and audiences, and they include—along with conventional academic papers—encyclopedia entries, after-dinner addresses, a lecture for graduate students, a book review, newspaper articles, and letters to the editors of national newspapers. While many are available elsewhere, two have never appeared in print, and two others have not been published in English. The varied formats collected here are enriched by Hayek’s changing voice at different stages of his life. Some of the pieces resonate as high-minded and noble; some are meant as cuts to “intellectuals” (a pejorative term when used by Hayek) like Keynes and Galbraith. All serve to distill important threads of his worldview.

Book Description
Excerpt from Political Economy and Ethics Though I have received no direct assistance in the preparation of this little Essay, I avail myself of this opportunity to acknowledge my indebtedness to my teachers. My deepest obligation is to my first teacher in Philosophy, Ethics, and Psychology, the late Professor George Paxton Young, LL.D. For his careful training in methods and his skilful guidance in philosophical problems, and for the privilege of coming into close contact with a teacher of such noble character, pure life, and lofty ideals, I feel profoundly grateful. In my post-graduate studies I am under obligation for assistance, suggestion, and guidance, to the following Professors.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Principles of Economical Philosophy, Vol. 1 Your industry and talents became especially known to me while I filled the o ice of Secretary to the Board of Supervision in Edinburgh, when you took a very active part in forming the Combination for erecting the Easter Ross Poorhouse. I am confident that without your energy and perseverance, that Combination would not then have been formed. The views which you at that time so clearly and ably enunciated in regard to the mode of administering the Poor Laws in the Highland Districts, have been of material service to the Board of Supervision, and the example of Easter Ross has now been extensively followed, mainly in consequence of the impulse given by you. It was from a desire to give as wide a circula tion as possible to views which to them appeared sound, that the Board referred to your Correspondence in their Annual Report for 1852. The whole system was then new and untried in that part of Scotland, and stood in need of an able advocate. As this was the first regular introduction of the Poorhouse system of relief into Scotland, as might naturally be expected.
