Hayek and von Mises on Liberty, Socialism, and Interventionism
ABSTRACT
Mises and Hayek made significant contributions about the instability and feasibility of socialism and economic interventionism, and yet, they are still unappreciated in many parts of the world, particularly in Latin America. We discussed the work on socialism from these two great thinkers and discussed the implications for political economy today.
