The Pure Theory of Capital
Friedrich August Hayek
The Pure Theory of Capital, F. A. Hayekâs long-overlooked, little-understood volume, was his most detailed work in economic theory. Originally published in 1941 when fashionable economic thought had shifted to John Maynard Keynes, Hayekâs manifesto of capital theory is now available again for todayâs students and economists to discover.With a new introduction by Hayek expert Lawrence H. White, who firmly situates the book not only in historical and theoretical context but within Hayekâs own life and his struggle to complete the manuscript, this edition commemorates the celebrated scholarâs last major work in economics. Offering a detailed account of the equilibrium relationships between inputs and outputs in an economy, Hayekâs stated objective was to make capital theoryâwhich had previously been devoted almost entirely to the explanation of interest ratesââuseful for the analysis of the monetary phenomena of the real world.â His ambitious goal was nothing less than to develop a capital theory that could be fully integrated into the business cycle theory.
