Post-Print from HAL

Abstract: Austrian Economics and Public Choice are used to analyze the erratic administrative decision-making process during the Covid-19 crisis. Lockdowns policies had added a new page to the economic planning debate. The paper focus on the centralization/decentralization level of the decision and on the actors' incentives. We use an Hayekian perspective on knowledge spreading in order to explain the crucial needs of human interactions. Lockdowns had pushed social organization toward more autarkist schemes. These measures confront heavily with the core organization of open societies, creating worry economic consequences without any proved positive effect on public healthcare.
