Use Of Knowledge In Society

Use of Knowledge in Society

by Friedrich Hayek

In "Use of Knowledge in Society," Friedrich Hayek argues against the feasibility and efficiency of a centrally planned economy. He emphasizes the inherent limitations of central planning in accessing and utilizing the dispersed knowledge present within a society. Hayek highlights the crucial role of market prices in transmitting and aggregating information, enabling individuals to make informed decisions about resource allocation. Through a compelling analysis, he demonstrates the superiority of a decentralized market structure in fostering economic growth and prosperity.
