Line 115:
Line 115: − :::You have to see Jewkes earlier 1948 book, ''Ordeal by Planning'', and Hayek's 1945 work, ''Road to Serfdom''. It is essentially critique of [[Keynesian]] economic theory. Some of James Burnham's 1941 ''Managerial Revolution'' can also probably fit in here. [[User:RobS|RobS]] 11:22, 12 June 2007 (EDT)+
→Jewkes Book(s): sorry, but i did not post tjhis comment here.
::''John Jewkes (1902 - 1988) is best known for his book Ordeal by Planning which he wrote in 1946 in an attempt to show that the wartime planning system, which many people wished to maintain and develop in the post-war world, would condemn the United Kingdom to poverty and failure. If Friedrich von Hayek in The Road to Serfdom provided a more celebrated philosophical treatise, it was Jewkes who produced a more down to earth and practically convincing case against central planning.'' http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=John_Jewkes.

:I agree that Jewkes seems to critique Keynesian economics. That has NOTHING TO DO WITH the question at hand, namely '''where did the phrase "New Ordeal" come from?'''[[User:Frederick|Frederick]] 11:24, 12 June 2007 (EDT)
