HooverPublisher: Rowman & LittlefieldCategory: Biography: General, Biography: Historical, Political & Military, Political Science & Theory, Economics, Economics, Economic Theory & Philosophy, Economic Theory & Philosophy, Political Economy, Political EconomyAge Group: 15+Book Format: PaperbackEconomics as Ideology: Keynes, Laski, Hayek and the Creation of Contemporary Politics explores the lives and thought of three powerful theorists who shaped the foundations of the center, left, and right of the political spectrum in the 20th century. Noted scholar Kenneth R. Hoover examines how each thinker developed their ideas, looks at why and how their views evolved into ideologies, and draws connections between these ideologies and our contemporary political situation. Similar in age, colleagues in academic life, and participants in the century's defining political events, the story of Keynes, Laski, and Hayek is also the story of how we in the west came to define politics as the choice between government and the market, between regulation and freedom, and between the classes and the masses.
