《通往奴役之路》英文原版 The Road to Serfdom by F. A. Hayek |
弗里德里希奥古斯特冯哈耶克先生在1944年出版了他的划时代作品《通往奴役之路》,这并非仅仅意味着他的首都畅销书问世。这部著作不仅很快惊动了经济学界,而且很快引发了一场迄今为止仍然令广泛的阶层感兴趣的辩论。它在很大程度上也符合哈耶克的个人兴趣。如果说哈耶克的老师路德维希冯米瑟斯所同属其中的奥地利学派最初追求的是某种如同一种纯粹的——没有经验因素或历史因素也过得去的——经济理论的东西,那么哈耶克在《通往奴役之路》一书中似乎想至少部分跳出这一狭窄的框框。他自己在后来也曾这样描述过:“我对纯理论有些厌倦。我写作《资本的纯理论》的四个年头里是非常艰苦的。”
《通往奴役之路》唤醒了所有不同流派的知识分子。或者,如同哈耶克后来所说的那样,“它关注一个瞬间,完全针对英国的社会主义知识分子,在他们的头脑里似 乎有着一种想法,以为国家社会主义不是社会主义,而只是某种可憎的东西。于是,我试图对他们说:‘你们和他们一样在走同一条道路’。” In the last years of World War II, Friedrich Hayek wrote The Road to Serfdom. He warned the allies that policy proposals which were being canvassed for the post-war world ran the risk of destroying the very freedom for which they were fighting. On the basis of 'as in war, so in peace', economists and others were arguing that the government should plan all economic activity. Such planning, Hayek argued, would be incompatible with liberty, and had been at the very heart of the movements that had established both communism and Nazism. On its publication in 1944, the book caused a sensation. Neither its British nor its American publisher could keep up with demand, owing to wartime paper rationing. Then, in 1945, Reader's Digest published The Road to Serfdom as the condensed book in its April edition. For the first and still the only time, the condensed book was placed at the front of the magazine instead of the back. Hayek found himself a celebrity, addressing a mass market. The condensed edition was republished for the first time by the IEA in 1999 and has been reissued to meet the continuing demand for its enduringly relevant and accessible message.
