Working after the war, Hayek's writing was very much against the tide of mainstream Keynesian economic thought. But in the 1970s and 1980s - the eras of Thatcherism and Reaganomics - he was championed as a prophet of neo-liberalism by those who were seeking to revolutionize the post-war social consensus. The Constitution of Liberty is crucial reading for all those seeking to understand ideas that have become the orthodoxy in the age of the globalized economy.

Hayek's 'The Road to Serfdom' was published, it was compared by critics to John Stuart Mill's celebrated essay 'On Liberty.' Now Mr. Hayek gives us a positive statement of the principles of a free society that in scope and breadth is more like a new 'Wealth of Nations.' Written for the general reader, it provides a modern restatement of the ideals of freedom that have guided, and must continue to guide, the growth of Western civilization." - from dust-jacket blurb.
