Abstract
The aim of this paper is to analyze the relation between conservatism and the doctrine of economic liberalism from the perspective of Roger Scruton's critique to Friedrich A. Hayek. We carry out this attempt through three means: first, Hayek's concepts of negative freedom, spontaneous order, and catallaxy are analyzed; second, the English philosopher's critique of Hayek is explained; and finally, Scruton's social and economic theory is presented as a response of the inconsistencies of economic liberalism.
