Review: The Road to Serfdom: Text and Documents

User Review  - Shawn - Goodreads

Hayek definitely presents a compelling argument for "liberalism." And, he has great insight in the way political and economic systems work and how they work with each other. However, this was too ... Read full review

Review: The Road to Serfdom

User Review  - Jinan Kim - Goodreads

It's hard to understand, cause the long sentence and too many negative words. But above all, the idea about the future of planned society is a little bit weird to me.. So, It's really pain to read.. Read full review

Review: The Road to Serfdom

User Review  - M Pereira - Goodreads

This was a heavy going book. I didn't know anything about Hayek when I started reading this, except for him being a friend of Popper. I then found out that he's hailed by the right wing of politics in ... Read full review

User Review  - Kari - Goodreads

User Review  - Jud Barry - Goodreads

OK, I'll admit that I finally broke down and read this book because of Glenn Beck. I've heard about this book for so long from conservatives who say that it shows how contemporary liberalism is Hayek ... Read full review

Review: The Road to Serfdom

User Review  - Jim - Goodreads

This was a difficult read. Written in 1944 in England it is still relevant today. From page 231 of the book, "Freedom to order our own conduct in the sphere where material circumstances force a choice ... Read full review

Review: The Road to Serfdom

User Review  - Scott - Goodreads

This book is one very long rant about how our current political decisions are leading us down the path to totalitarianism. There's a problem, though: This book was written 65 years ago, and sounds ... Read full review
