Hayek's Interdisciplinary Approach to Liberalism

Frederick Hayek's 'Constitution of Liberty' presents a multifaceted perspective on liberalism that transcends traditional economic theories. While Hayek is celebrated as an economist, the book divides into three distinct parts, addressing philosophical principles, historical legal developments, and finally economic issues. He emphasizes that solutions to contemporary social questions must consider insights from various disciplines beyond economics, advocating for an interdisciplinary approach. This holistic view suggests that understanding a free society requires incorporating ideas from philosophy, history, and law, reflecting the complexity of societal structures and traditions.
