Re: Fouc Hayek & liberalism

Re
Wynyard Hillier's post:

That 's a pretty good comment on Hayek for someone who hasn't read him.
You've got him I think, through your Foucault/exegesis.

There is an interesting connection with Behaviourism. There was an
article or speech by one of the Public choice gurus in which he quite
seriously offered to give up the rationality component of homo
economicus in return for the ability to incorporate behaviourism. what
behaviourism had to offer was the attraction of scientific credibility.
You could get some laboratory evidence, which is in rather short supply
for h. ec.
