A new edition of F. A. Hayekâs three-part opus Law, Legislation, and Liberty, collated in a single volume In this critical entry in the University of Chicagoâs Collected Works of F. A. Hayek series, political philosopher Jeremy Shearmur collates Hayekâs three-part study of law and liberty and places Hayekâs writings in careful historical context. Incisive and unrestrained, Law, Legislation, and Liberty is Hayek at his late-life best, making it essential reading for understanding the philosopherâs politics and worldview. These three volumes constitute a scaling up of the framework offered in Hayekâs famed The Road to Serfdom. Volume 1, Rules and Order, espouses the virtues of classical liberalism; Volume 2, The Mirage of Social Justice, examines the societal forces that undermine liberalism and, with it, liberalismâs capacity to induce âspontaneous orderâ; and Volume 3, The Political Order of a Free People, proposes alternatives and interventions against emerging anti-liberal movements, including a rule of law that resides in stasis with personal freedom. Shearmurâs treatment of this challenging workâincluding an immersive new introduction, a conversion of Hayekâs copious endnotes to footnotes, corrections to Hayekâs references and quotations, and the provision of translations to material that Hayek cited only in languages other than Englishâlends it new importance and accessibility. Rendered anew for the next generations of scholars, this revision of Hayekâs Law, Legislation, and Liberty is sure to become the standard.
