Amor Quote by Friedrich Hayek
““É muito significativo e característico o fato de socialistas (e nazistas) terem sempre protestado contra a justiça “?meramente” formal, opondose a um Direito que não tencionasse determinar os níveis de renda dos diferentes indivíduos2, e de terem sempre exigido a “socialização do Direito”, atacado a independência dos juízes e ao mesmo tempo prestado apoio a todos os movimentos, tal como a Freirechtsschule, que solaparam o estado de Direito.””
