Review The pure theory of capital / Univ. of Chicago Press:The Pure Theory of Capital, F. A. Hayek’s long-overlooked, little-understood volume, was his most detailed work in economic theory. Originally published in 1941 when fashionable economic thought had shifted to John Maynard Keynes, Hayek’s manifesto of capital theory is now available again for today’s students and economists to discover. With a new introduction by Hayek expert Lawrence H. White, who firmly situates the book not only in historical and theoretical context but within Hayek’s own life and his struggle to complete the manuscript, this edition commemorates the celebrated scholar’s last major work in economics. Offering a detailed account of the equilibrium relationships between inputs and outputs in an economy, Hayek’s stated objective was to make capital theory—which had previously been devoted almost entirely to the explanation of interest rates—“useful for the analysis of the monetary phenomena of the real world. ” His ambitious goal was nothing less than to develop a capital theory that could be fully integrated into the business cycle theory.

Review Serving Two Masters, Yet Out of Control: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac / American Enterprise Institute Press:Serving Two Masters, Yet Out of Control examines the two irreconcilable roles of The Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac). In effect these government sponsored enterprises serve two masters. As publicly owned corporations, they are required to maximize profitability for their shareholders; as government agencies, they have been assigned public missions for which they receive an implicit government subsidy. The size of this subsidy and how it is divided between their public and private objectives, the risks that those objectives create for taxpayers, and the agencies' resistance to efforts by any regulatory body - or even Congress - to gain control over their activities exemplify the internal tensions created by their conflicting objectives. Essays in this volume address the question of whether these organizations should retain the favored positions that have allowed them to grow to unprecedented size, to realize extraordinary profitability, and to achieve unparalleled influence over the political process. The editors conclude that the only viable solution is to fully privatize the two agencies or to adopt policies that would force the agencies to adopt this course themselves.
