Another oustanding discussion of the relation between 
nondeliberative and deliberative decision making can 
be found in Frederick Will, _Beyond Deduction_, 1988. 
 
Will distinguishes between three categories of intelletual 
'governance' 
 
(1)  between ampliative and deductive 
 
(2)  between reflective and non-reflective 
 
(3)  between non-philosohical and philosophical 
 
Will discusses various combinations of these aspects  
of intellectual 'governance'.  In his discussion of non-reflective, 
ampliative philosophical governance, and non-deliberative, non- 
reflective, and even non-conscioius processes of intellectual governance, 
Will uses the work of Hayek as an example.  (see F. Will, 1988, pp. 158- 
161). 
 
And yes, in the intellectual family tree, Frederick Will is the 
New Deal liberal father of the Strausian Reaganite conservative TV 
commentator George Will.  (biological tree, not intellectual).
