This paper argues that the "Non-Plan: An experiment in freedom" by Reyner Banham, Paul Barker, Peter Hall and Cedric Price, published in 1969 in the leftist magazine "New Society", has more in common with the then developing New Right, than with the New Left. Their 'non-plan' is shown to shared key characteristics with the proposals of F. A. Hayek and it is counterposed with an alternative 'non-plan' practiced by contemporaneous radical squatters.
