Economic and Social Science

Chapter 5 in The Economics of Friedrich Hayek, 2007, pp 78-103 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The moment of conception sets genetic predispositions and, thereafter, human knowledge is derived from an interactive sequence of action, experience, interpretation and response. That first-hand knowledge is supplemented by the human skills of language and communication, which allow information to be acquired from secondary sources. Cultural conditioning begins as and when institutional norms and patterns of social relationships are impressed upon the mind.
