The book "Individualism and Economic Order" (Individualism and Economic Order [1948]) was compiled by the economic and political-philosophical works of one of the largest thinkers of the 20th century, an outstanding economist, Nobel Prize winner F.A. Hayek. Written in the 30-40s, they became classical and largely determined the development of modern economic and social theory. The title of the collection is connected with one of the key themes for F. Hayek's work: why do some versions of philosophical individualism turn out to be incompatible with the ideals of a free society, paving the way for freedom to totalitarianism?
