The Sensory Order and Other Writings on the Foundations of Theoretical Psychology

In addition to his influential scholarship on economic and social theory, F. A. Hayek greatly impacted theoretical psychology with his book "The Sensory Order." Perhaps because he was a social scientist, Hayek s work in psychology has been mostly overlooked. Editor Viktor Vanberg frames "The Sensory Order" as an essential work necessary for any deeper understanding of Hayek s economic and social philosophy while adding on several important essays by Hayek that help illuminate the ideas of the book since its original publication in 1952. As volume 14 of the Collected Works of F. A. Hayek, "The Sensory Order "will definitively take its place as an integral and foundational part of Hayek s oeuvre."

Constitutional Economics and Public Institutions

This extensive book explores in detail a wide range of topics within the public choice and constitutional political economy tradition, providing a comprehensive overview of current work across the field. The expert contributions are underpinned by the notion of moving economic thinking away from the analysis of the logic of a situation given a set of well-established and well-enforced Ôrules of the gameÕ towards a deeper analysis of the logic behind the selection of the rules of the game themselves. Within this context, the theme of choice between rules (as well as the more conventional analysis within rules) across historical time and place, and in various thought experiments and conceptu...
