The book applies these insights to the nature of markets and morals, what education should consist of, and the problems of alienation and our existential malaise as we move into an increasingly abstract society. In doing so it also shows the unscientific nature of the rationalist constructivist approach of progressivism, and the disastrous consequences that would arise from following these positions. The book shows the complex interplay between top-down or directed structures (what Hayek and others have called taxis organizations) and far more complex orders of the social or psychological cosmos in which they are embedded as constituents. It details how the key to the market orders of society depends upon their capacity to impersonally convey information to agents. Markets can serve unknown and unforeseen ends for individuals who do not know or have contact with other market participants. This is a vastly more powerful and productive system than anything that can arise in a tribal or face-to-face organization limited to personal contact, such as the sort proposed by the constructivists. The book will be of interest to academics and scholars in classical liberalism, economics and political philosophy. Walter B. Weimer is Emeritus Professor of Psychology at the Pennsylvania State University. He was instrumental in bringing Hayek's philosophical psychology both to a psychology audience and to an economics audience. 001446670 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed May 12, 2022). 001446670 650_0 $$aLiberalism$$xPhilosophy. 001446670 650_0 $$aConstructivism (Philosophy) 001446670 650_0 $$aEconomics$$xPhilosophy. 001446670 650_0 $$aEconomics$$xPsychological aspects. 001446670 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001446670 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in classical liberalism,$$x2662-6489 001446670 852__ $$bebk 001446670 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-95477-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001446670 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1446670$$pGLOBAL_SET 001446670 980__ $$aBIB 001446670 980__ $$aEBOOK 001446670 982__ $$aEbook 001446670 983__ $$aOnline 001446670 994__ $$a92$$bISE
