Milton Friedman
Major Conservative and Libertarian Thinkers
Series Editor: John Meadowcroft
Volume 19
Milton Friedman was one of the most important twentieth century
advocates of libertarian and conservative ideas in academia
and amongst the wider public. As a professional economist
and teacher at the University of Chicago, Friedman made a
critical contribution to the development of the free market
and monetarist economics that challenged the dominant interventionist
and Keynesian paradigm throughout the developed world. As a public intellectual, Friedman’s books Capitalism and Freedom and Free to Choose, as well as his shorter popular writings and television programs, were crucial to the advance of public understanding of the role of the market in the promotion of human freedom and well-being.
