While not explicitly a book by Hayek, the reference points to his broader critique of social justice initiatives.
Hayek argued that the desire for redistribution stems from atavistic instincts, hindering the development of a truly free market society.
His work emphasizes individual liberty and limited government intervention, viewing social justice programs as threats to economic efficiency and individual freedom.
Hayek's ideas have significantly influenced neoliberal thought and policy, shaping debates on economic inequality and the role of the state.
