| Sammanfattning: | Regarded as a great democrat and one of the greatest advocates for liberty in the 20th century,
F. A. Hayek has been on the spotlight for (neo)liberal political theory research after 2008's
financial crisis. This dissertation seeks to discuss the concept of democracy under Hayek’s
thought, making use of Hayek's main philosophy and political theory books, and also his
lectures and interviews about the matter. This bibliographical snippet was taken as means to
discuss something rather new on brazilian political literature and even in English: Hayek's
open support to liberal dictatorships in the 20th century, the ones he used to refer as
"transitional dictatorships", supposedly related to a upswing for the concept unlimited
democracy that existed before to an ideal and limited model of democracy. The first half of
this dissertation introduces the reader to the main concepts stated by Hayek as to show that his
option for "limited democracy" is justified by his own social science. The second half makes
critical observations about the concept of cultural evolution, market and democracy under
Hayek's thoughts, making use of an interdisciplinary literature to argue that Hayek should not
be considered a guardian of democracy, if we understood it as participatory democracy, and
much less a guardian of liberty, if we understood it as too political liberty. |
