This volume explores the political economy and social philosophy of F. A. Hayek as they relate to social change. Arguably one limitation of Hayek’s social philosophy is that he, as some of his contemporaries quipped, does not know the words “for example.” This means that much of his work on social philosophy is relatively abstract and hard to approach. This might also explain why it has taken so long for scholars to fully appreciate the breadth and depth of his social philosophy. Toward a Hayekian Theory of Social Change remedies the lack of more practical studies of Hayek’s theory of social change by bringing together several scholars from different social science disciplines who relate Hayek’s theory of social change to empirical phenomena and methodological debates within their respective disciplines.

This volume brings together an ambitious group of emerging scholars from different disciplines to put F. A. Hayek's ideas to the test in non-standard contexts, such as Potlatch gift exchange and Darwinian morality. In the finest sense, it is audacious.
