Hayek 1967: 99–100)39 Bruce Caldwell has kindly suggested to me that as Smith’s “invisible hand” was ridiculed as having religious or mystical connotations, the scientific and anti- clerical environment in which Hayek was raised might explain his reluctance to 28 L. Montes use it directly. 40 Also Hayek’s rhetoric referring to the invisible hand is clear about this supposition. The idea of promoting an end which was no part of his intention is clear in the TMS and WN invisible hand. Grampp (2000) too readily dismisses the Hayekian interpretation by simply focusing on the context of the WN invisible hand.
One cannot avoid imagining that his long wait for finally witnessing the implementation of his ideals was undertaken with patience and restless intellectual rigor. Although there is intellectual evolution from his 1933 “The Trend of Economic Thinking” up to his “Individualism: True and False” (1945), from the latter onwards there is a solid intellectual background that keeps the same framework. As his late essay “Liberalism” (1973) maintains basically the same arguments, we can conclude that Hayek’s classical liberal principles are consistent.
While Smith and the other great Scottish individualists of the eighteenth century – even though they spoke of the “invisible hand” – provided such an explanation, all that Hegel and Comte give us is a mysterious teleological force. And while eighteenth-century individualism, essentially humble in its aspirations, aimed at the understanding as well as possible the principles by which the individual efforts combined to produce a civilization in order to learn what were the conditions most favourable to its further growth, Hegel and Comte became the main source of that hubris of collectivism which aims at “conscious direction” of all forces of society.
