		<description><![CDATA[The continuing financial collapse of 2008, which caused trillions of dollars of damages to most everyone but the Wall Street elites, will perhaps lead to some hesitation in the reflex to evoke the Wall Street model—if not to some more fundamental rethinking of the issues. Perhaps the Occupy Wall Street movements around the world are the beginning of such a rethinking. In any case, our purpose here is such a rethinking by going back to some of the basic principles that are supposed to be exemplified in a market economy.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Frank Fukuyama's recent review of Hayek's Constitution of Liberty in the NYTimes has raised a ruckus in Hayekian circles. I review an older critique of Hayek by Ralf Dahrendorf and then lament the absence of the Hayekians in the great debate of the 1990s about socially engineering the transition from socialism to capitalism. Apparently the Hayekian strictures against utopian social engineering only applied to the transition in the opposite direction.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So many development commentators over the decades have demonstrated their incomprehension of the subtleties of development aid by modeling it on the idea of "vaccinating children" that this example has become a punch-line for jokes about development naïveté.  But today I see in the New York Times the breathless new idea of "cash-on-delivery aid" to pay developing countries so much cash for each child vaccinated!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Surely it is not too much to ask a modern liberal theory of justice that it provide a coherent account of why some contracts, e.g., self-sale contract, should be deemed invalid and why the rights such contracts would legally alienate are inalienable. In that sense, the theory of inalienable rights provides a historical litmus test for liberalism.]]></description>
