F. A. Hayek and the Epistemology of Politics: The Curious Task of Economics de Scott Scheall

F. A. Hayek and the Epistemology of Politics: The Curious Task of Economics: Routledge Studies in the History of Economics

Autor Scott Scheall
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2021
F. A. Hayek and the Epistemology of Politics is an exploration of an important problem that has largely been ignored heretofore: the problem of policymaker ignorance and the consequences of limited political knowledge. Scott Scheall explores the significance of the fact that the possibilities for effective political action are constrained by policymakers’ epistemic limitations. The book offers an explanation for why policymaking often fails and why constituents, whatever their political affiliations, are so often disappointed with political leaders.




In this philosophical examination of his work, Hayek’s ideas are not merely discussed, analyzed, and contextualized, but extended; the book both draws and defends previously unrecognized implications from the Hayekian canon.




The book will be of interest to scholars of the works of F. A. Hayek and his intellectual adversaries, to policymakers, and to those of all political, philosophical, and social-scientific persuasions.

Recenzii

"Scheall provides an engaging analysis of the possibility of applying Hayek’s methodology to policymaking in liberal democracies, rich in suggestions for both economists and political scientists. The discussion of the core idea of his book is enriched by many enlightening insights into the history of economics, such as the economic calculation debate, Hayek’s quarrels with Keynes, and the influence of philosophers and scientists like Adolph St€ohr and Hermann von Helmholtz on Hayek’s theory of knowledge and perception."
Francesco Di Iorio, European Journal of the History of Economic Thought
