Books by F. A. Hayek

Friedrich August Hayek (1899–1992) was an Austrian-British economist and political philosopher. He shared the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in 1974 with Gunnar Myrdal. His academic work spans business cycle theory, epistemology, and political philosophy, with major works including The Pure Theory of Capital, The Constitution of Liberty, and the three-volume Law, Legislation and Liberty. He taught at the London School of Economics, the University of Chicago, and the University of Freiburg. Hayek's influence on Anglo-American economic policy in the 1970s and 1980s was substantial and remains contested.
