Gesammelte Schriften: Mißbrauch und Verfall der Vernunft: Ein Fragment: BD 2 Unknown - 2004
by August, Friedrich
From the publisher
English summary: This volume contains essays on basic issues of the methodology of the social sciences and on the history of socialist thought. Friedrich A. von Hayek wrote these essays in the 1940s as part of a larger project addressing the history of the abuse and decline of reason in modern times. The critique of scientism and constructivism that is at the core of these essays concerns a central theme in Hayek's work, namely the Pretence of Knowledge. A first book edition appeared in 1952 under the title The Counter-Revolution of Science - Studies in the Abuse of Reason. For this new edition of the German version, which is out of print, the original translation by Helene von Hayek has been slightly revised. German description: Dieser Band enthalt Abhandlungen zu grundlegenden Fragen der Methodologie der Sozialwissenschaften und zu den ideengeschichtlichen Wurzeln des Sozialismus, die Friedrich A. von Hayek in den 1940er Jahren als Teil eines geplanten umfangreicheren Projekts uber die Geschichte des Missbrauchs und Verfalls der Vernunft in moderner Zeit verfasst hat. Die darin vorgetragene Kritik des Szientismus und Konstruktivismus ist von grundlegender Bedeutung fur das zentrale Thema des Hayek'schen Werkes, die Anmassung von Wissen. Ursprunglich in englischer Sprache in Zeitschriften veroffentlicht, wurden die Abhandlungen in Buchform erstmals 1952 unter dem Titel The Counter-Revolution of Science - Studies in the Abuse of Reason zusammengefasst. Eine deutsche Fassung unter dem Titel Missbrauch und Verfall der Vernunft erschien 1959. Fur die hier vorgelegte Neuauflage der inzwischen vergriffenen deutschen Ausgabe ist die von Helene von Hayek verfasste Ubersetzung uberarbeitet worden.

As NewThe book is pristine and free of any defects, in the same condition as when it was first newly published.

Very Good (VG)A used book that does show some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Very good items should not have writing or highlighting.

-
