:What Hayek is saying is liberalism, in the classic sense, was weakened to none exiistent to oppose Nazism. And your use of conservative here likewise is problematic; the titled nobility of Germany, or for that matter all of Europe, is "conservative" in the European sense. As we've had this discussion elsewhere, the US Constitution expressly prohibitys the government for conferring titles. So the express meaning of the term here, "conservative" to refer to von Papen and others is wholely out of context in attempt to drtaw a parallel to contemporary American conservativism.
