New Hayek Material

F. A. Hayek




The Hoover Institution has announced that new digital materials from the papers of Nobel Prize winning economist and social philosopher, Friedrich A. von Hayek, are now available to researchers for the first time.

Digital archivists recovered files created by Hayek’s longtime secretary, Charlotte Cubitt, from 39 3.5 inch floppy disks.

The files contain notes made by Cubitt during the course of her work and document Hayek’s meetings, travel, and daily activities from the late 1970s until Hayek’s death in 1992.  Cubitt’s accounts will give a unique look into Hayek’s life and work during his final years.

Researchers can access these files in the Hoover Archives reading room.
