Conceito de ordem espontânea em F.A. Hayek e sua importância para o pensamento liberal

Abstract

The objective of this study is to analyze the concept of Spontaneous Order of FA Hayek and the relationship of the same with the market economy. For Hayek the spontaneous order is characterized by freedom instinctive among men and liberalism translates into conscious freedom, individual liberty. If you need to set all his thought in a single word that would be freedom, society is a non planned an evolution that occurred over time, that while it is a result of the action of man, is not the result of a "design ". A tribal society, where everyone knew each other and had common goals, had rules that had a concrete character and, as evolved, was gradually losing this character and the rules became more abstract, forming the current, advanced and complex society. This process was important the role of traditions. The social order was formed by those rules which have the advantage of standardizing individual actions. Another important aspect of this evolutionary process is the role of individual freedom, and freedom of choice and the right of everyone to seek to satisfy their needs, which unconsciously leads to collective well-being and wealth of nations. The central structure of Hayek's thought is the concept of a free society founded on the rule of law and the market economy.
