In the last years of World War II, Friedrich Hayek wrote The Road to Serfdom. He warned the allies that policy proposals which were being canvassed for the post-war world ran the risk of destroying the very freedom for which they were fighting. On the basis of 'as in war, so in peace', economists and others were arguing that the government should plan all economic activity. Such planning, Hayek argued, would be incompatible with liberty, and had been at the very heart of the movements that had established both communism and Nazism.
On its publication in 1944, the book caused a sensation. Neither its British nor its American publisher could keep up with demand, owing to wartime paper rationing. Then, in 1945, Reader's Digest published The Road to Serfdom as the condensed book in its April edition. For the first and still the only time, the condensed book was placed at the front of the magazine instead of the back. Hayek found himself a celebrity, addressing a mass market.
The condensed edition was republished for the first time by the IEA in 1999 and has been reissued to meet the continuing demand for its enduringly relevant and accessible message.
##经典~很不太懂
评分##The first book that Casey recommended to me - very political and philosophical, but nonetheless interesting arguments.

评分##如果我们听听反对者的声音,或许我们就不再盲目迷信很多东西。其实,自由主义一直是人类追求的永恒,只是,我们不能发出这种声音罢了。而内心深处和呼喊和历史的真实轨迹,永远不以个人意志为转移,真理永远不能被左翼右翼的无聊争辩所遮掩,这就是哈耶克。

评分##文摘版有它与时俱进的去繁就简的优点,而且英文清晰明确。
评分##和1984一起看,就能更理解西方社会为什么这么反共。
