consensus by writing The Road to Serfdom。 Sarcastically dedicated to "socialists of all parties;" it was a popular success。 There was even a cartoon version of it。

旁白:正在伦敦经济学院教学的哈耶克担心凯恩斯勇敢的新世界是朝着错误方向迈出的一大步。他写了《通往奴役之路》,向主流意见发起了攻击。它对“各政党中的社会主义者”进行讽刺,受到了欢迎。甚至还出现了关于它的漫画。

Its message was simple and direct: Too much government planning means too much government power; and too much government power over the economy destroys freedom and makes men slaves。 For Hayek; central planning was the first step to a totalitarian state。

它的意思很简单也很直接:太多政府计划意味着太多政府权力;政府对经济的权力太大损害自由,而且使人们成为奴隶。在哈耶克看来,中央计划是成为极权主义国家的第一步。

GEOFFREY HARCOURT: Well; Hayek thought that since freedom was an absolute; you must let a petitive system just work itself out。 And if at times that meant there was considerable unemployment; well; that's what you had to put up with

GEOFFREY HARCOURT:哈耶克认为既然自由是绝对的,那么你必须让竞争体系完全依靠自身解决问题。如果有时候这意味着相当多的失业,那也是你所必须忍受的。

ROBERT SKIDELSKY: Hayek always rejected macroeconomics。 He rejected any government intervention during the Great Depression itself; whereas Keynes was an activist。 He said in the long run we're all dead; and in the long run if we allow things to go on without remedy; we get lots of Hitlers; lots of wars; and lots of Stalins。 And who was right?

ROBERT SKIDELSKY:哈耶克一直抵制宏观经济学。大萧条时期他反对任何政府干预,而凯恩斯则是一个激进分子。他说长期来看我们都会死亡,长期来看如果我们允许事情自由发展,就会产生许多希特勒,许多战争和许多斯大林。那么谁是正确的?

NARRATOR: Most people would have agreed with Keynes when he wrote this to Hayek。

旁白:在凯恩斯写这些给哈耶克的时候多数人同意凯恩斯的观点。

JOHN MAYNARD KEYNES: What we want is not no planning; or even less planning。 We almost certainly want more。

凯恩斯:我们想要的不是没有计划,甚至也不是较少的计划。我们几乎肯定想要更多的计划。

NARRATOR: In the battle of ideas; Hayek was on the losing side。
