Liberalism's Last Man (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A modern reframing of Friedrich Hayek's most famous work for the 21st century.Friedrich Hayek's The Road to Serfdom was both an intellectual milestone and a source of political division, spurring fiery debates around capitalism and its discontents. In the ensuing discord, Hayek's true message was lost: liberalism is a thing to be protected above all else, and its alternatives are perilous.In Liberalism's Last Man, Vikash Yadav revives the core of Hayek's famed work to map today's primary political anxiety: the tenuous state of liberal meritocratic capitalism-particularly in North America, Europe, and Asia-in the face of strengthening political-capitalist powers like China, Vietnam, and Singapore. As open societies struggle to match the economic productivity of authoritarian-capitalist economies, the promises of a meritocracy fade; Yadav channels Hayek to articulate how liberalism's moral backbone is its greatest defense against repressive social structures.
