abstract |
This book offers a new radical reading of Hayek in the 21st century. It investigates
the moral dimension of his political theory, arguing that it is based on the methodological
implications of an epistemologically founded concept of morality. This concept is
about the recognition and respect of the natural limits of human knowledge. The moral
dimension of Hayek's theory consists of the process of spontaneity and evolution.
This process excludes but also requires substantive politics. The moral exclusion
of substantive politics undermines freedom and equality in the market, relativising
commutative justice and legitimating the minimal state only from the point of view
of its legality. Therefore, such politics is also required for preserving and maintaining
the market institutions in terms of liberalism. This dualism is due to the fact that,
despite Hayek's neo-liberal rhetoric, the process of spontaneity and evolution cannot
by itself be safeguarded against coercion, inequality and injustice. |
