Revision as of 18:27, 14 June 2021
Chicagoan Libertarianism is a kind of libertarian, economically moderately right to far-right, and culturally neutral but sometimes left-leaning political ideology.
It is used quite often to refer to 
Neoliberalism, although only a few economists of this school have referred to themselves as neoliberals.
It is quite a simple ideology, it's 
Libertarianism based on the thought of the Chicago School of Economics, which is a Neoclassical school of economics associated with the University of Chicago, mostly known for the Libertarian economist of second generation, and Nobel prize winner, Milton Friedman.
Within the precise ideas on economic believes, it is associated with the rejection of 
Keynesianism in favor of 
Monetarism (Which states that it's desirable to have a Monetary policy controlled by the government as long as it expands money supply consistent with GDP growth) until the mid-1970s when it turned to new classical macroeconomics strongly based on the concept of rational expectations. Specifically, 
Neo-Keynesian economics was developed as a response to new classical economics and Friedman's critiques to Keynesianism, electing to incorporate the idea of rational expectations without giving up the traditional Keynesian focus on imperfect competition and sticky wages.
Chicago economists have also left intellectual influence in other fields, notably in pioneering public choice theory and law and economics, which have led to revolutionary changes in the study of political sciences. The school also has some research done that has left some impact in fields as diverse as social economics and economic history. Thus, there is not a clear delineation of the Chicago school of economics, a term that is more commonly used in the popular media to refer to Friedmanite economics rather than being used in actual academic circles.
