# Friedrich Hayek (@friedrich-hayek)

Friedrich Hayek was an Austrian-British economist and social theorist whose work connected prices, dispersed knowledge, institutional evolution, and the limits of centralized planning. His early research addressed business cycles; his later work ranged across law, political philosophy, psychology, and social order. He shared the 1974 economics prize with Gunnar Myrdal.
