Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Post-Keynesian Economic Theory explores and develops several areas of post- Keynesian economics most in need of additional fundamental research, including: a monetary theory of production; post-Keynesian price theory; international economics; labor economics; financing aggregate demands; and the liquidity preference theory of interest. The book presents a constructive post-Keynesian critique of contemporary macroeconomic conceptualization and practice. It illustrates the illusory character of the search for unique, determinate results in the problems of macroeconomics and clearly demonstrates the complexity and resulting richness of meaningful economic theory.

Book Synopsis A History of American Economic Thought by : Samuel Barbour
Download or read book A History of American Economic Thought written by Samuel Barbour and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-04 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This vital addition to the Routledge History of Economic Thought series surveys arguably the most important country in the development of economics as we know it today – the United States of America. A History of American Economic Thought is a comprehensive study of American economics as it has evolved over time, with several singularly unique features including: a thorough examination of the economics of American aboriginals prior to 1492; a detailed discussion of American economics as it has developed during the last fifty years; and a generous dose of non-mainstream American economics under the rubrics "Other Voices" and "Crosscurrents." It is far from being a native American community, and numerous social reformers and those with alternative points of view are given as much weight as the established figures who dominate the mainstream of the profession. Generous doses of American economic history are presented where appropriate to give context to the story of American economics as it proceeds through the ages, from seventeenth-century pre-independence into the twentieth-first century packed full of influential figures including John Bates Clark, Thorstein Veblen, Irving Fisher, Paul Samuelson, and John Kenneth Galbraith, to name but a few. This volume has something for everyone interested in the history of economic thought, the nexus of American economic thought and American economic history, the fusion of American economics and philosophy, and the history of science.

Book Synopsis Neo-Marxism and Post-Keynesian Economics by : Ludo Cuyvers
Download or read book Neo-Marxism and Post-Keynesian Economics written by Ludo Cuyvers and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-06-09 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Piero Sraffa and Joan Robinson, both iconic Cambridge economists, were highly influenced by the economic theory of Karl Marx, and integrated important elements of Marx’s economic system into their theories. This book argues, based on published and unpublished documents, that the work of Sraffa and Robinson can in fact be considered as essentially post-Keynesian neo-Marxist. The first part of the book reviews the intellectual development of several key thinkers to this neo-Marxist current in economic thought: Kalecki, Steindl, Baran and Sweezy. Part One and Part Two separately examine Robinson and Sraffa’s works and questions how they fit into this specific neo-Marxist current, either building on it (in Robinson’s case), or following another direction (in Sraffa’s case). Part Three observes Robinson’s theory of economic growth and its relationship to the views of Marx and Kalecki. Overall, Cuyvers demonstrates how their thought processes share characteristics with neo-Marxist key ideological ideas, such as stating or implying the labour theory of value as either redundant or wrong, emphasising the role of class struggle in the distribution of income and rejecting Marx’s falling rate of profits. Following on from ideas briefly introduced in Cuyvers’s Economic Ideas of Marx’s Capital (2017), this book will particularly appeal to readers interested in the history of economic thought, the work of Sraffa, Robinson and Marx, post-Keynesian economics and neo-Marxism.

Book Synopsis Cambridge Economics in the Post-Keynesian Era by : Ashwani Saith
Download or read book Cambridge Economics in the Post-Keynesian Era written by Ashwani Saith and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I had the great pleasure to read early versions of this meticulously researched history of the rise and demise of Cambridge heterodox economics. I warmly congratulate Ashwani for his tour de force." -Geoff Harcourt "This book is awesome in both its depth and range. It should be required reading. A notable addition to the history of economic thought and to the history of our times."-Amiya Bagchi "The book is destined to become the definitive account in the history of economic thought of how neoclassical economists reinforced their hegemony over the academic discipline in the 20th Century". -Terry Barker "Ashwani Saith's book is monumental, enthralling, beautifully written with its occasional satirical tone, but as we are being warned, depressing ... This was so far an untold story." -Marc Lavoie "A fascinating investigation - fair, balanced, scholarly. Highly recommended." -Maria Cristina Marcuzzo "The meticulous research in Saith's brilliant book ... is not just a great contribution to the history of economic thought, but also to the understanding of the intellectual obscurantism of our times." -Jose Gabriel Palma "A meticulous and comprehensive discussion of ... the capture of Cambridge by economic orthodoxy ... a tour de force ... it is written with remarkable scrupulousness and lucidity. An essential read." -Prabhat Patnaik "Brilliantly contextualises the local happenings in Cambridge within the global rise of the 'neoliberal thought-collective' ... An extraordinary piece of research, lovingly told and immensely worthwhile." -Servaas Storm Using fresh archival materials, personal accounts and interviews, this meticulously researched book chronicles the untold story of the eclipse of diverse revolutionary heterodox and Keynesian intellectual traditions rooted and nurtured in Cambridge since the 1920s, and the rise to hegemony of orthodox, mainstream economics. It investigates both internal fault lines within the faculty, and the power of external ideological and political forces released by the global dominance of neoliberalism. Also expunged in the neoclassical counter-revolution were the structural and radical policy-oriented macroeconomic modelling teams of the iconic Department of Applied Economics, alongside the atrophy of sociology, development studies and economic history from the self-purifying faculty. This book addresses researchers in the history of economic thought, sociology of knowledge, political economy, especially heterodox and post-Keynesian economics, and anyone wishing to make economics fit for public purpose again for negotiating the multiple crises rampant at national and global levels. Ashwani Saith is an Emeritus Professor, International Institute of Social Studies, Erasmus University Rotterdam, and former Professor & Director, Development Studies Institute, London School of Economics.

Book Synopsis In Defense of Post-Keynesian and Heterodox Economics by : Frederic S. Lee
Download or read book In Defense of Post-Keynesian and Heterodox Economics written by Frederic S. Lee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Post-Keynesian and heterodox economics challenge the mainstream economics theories that dominate the teaching at universities and government economic policies. And it was these latter theories that helped to cause the great depression the United States and the rest of the world is in. However, most economists and the top 1% do not want mainstream theories challenged—for to do so would mean questioning why and how the 1% got where they are. Therefore, numerous efforts have been and are being made to discredit if not suppress Post-Keynesian and heterodox economics. These efforts have had some success; this book is a response to them. This book makes it clear that Post Keynesian/heterodox economics is, in spite of internal problems, a viable and important approach to economics and that it should resist the attempts of the critics to bury it. The reader will also find arguments that directly engage the critics and suggest that their views/criticisms are vacuous and wrong. As such, this will appeal to all who are interested in economic theory, economic history and who believe in challenging the orthodoxy.
Book Synopsis The Structure of Post-Keynesian Economics by : G. C. Harcourt
Download or read book The Structure of Post-Keynesian Economics written by G. C. Harcourt and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-10-12 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a major contribution to post-Keynesian thought. With studies of the key pioneers - Keynes himself, Kalecki, Kahn, Goodwin, Kaldor, Joan Robinson, Sraffa and Pasinetti - G. C. Harcourt emphasizes their positive contributions to theories of distribution, pricing, accumulation, endogenous money and growth. The propositions of earlier chapters are brought together in an integrated narrative and interpretation of the major episodes in advanced capitalist economics in the post-war period, leading to a discussion of the relevance of post-Keynesian ideas to both our understanding of economics and to policy-making. The appendices include biographical sketches of the pioneers and analysis of the conceptual core of their discontent with orthodox theories. Drawing on the author's experience of teaching and researching over fifty years, this book will appeal to undergraduate and graduate students interested in alternative approaches to theoretical, applied and policy issues in economics, as well as to teachers and researchers in economics.

Book Synopsis Debates in Macroeconomics from the Great Depression to the Long Recession by : Arie Arnon
Download or read book Debates in Macroeconomics from the Great Depression to the Long Recession written by Arie Arnon and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-06 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses major schools of thought in macroeconomic theory between the Great Depression and the Long Recession, focusing on their analysis of cycles, crises and macro-policy. It explores the road from the dominance of Keynesian ideas to those of New Classical Macroeconomics (NCM) toward the end of the millennium. The book covers the early influential work of Knut Wicksell; the economic debates of the 1930s, with core contributions from John Maynard Keynes and Friedrich von Hayek; the rise of Keynesianism in the 1950s and its decline since the 1970s; the rise of Monetarism in the 1960s; and NCM’s subsequent rise to prominence. Finally, the book outlines how macroeconomics has evolved from its birth in the 1930s as a theory separate from microeconomics, resulting in a split between macro- and micro-theories, and ended up with a new hegemonic paradigm based on microfoundations. The ensuing policy thinking witnessed a transformation from "active" macro-policy after the Great Depression to a far more "passive" macro-policy during the last quarter of the twentieth century, which may have contributed to missing the signs of the impending Long Recession of 2008. “When the 2008 crisis struck, macroeconomists were caught with models that were theoretically elegant yet inappropriate to the needs of the moment. A broader historical perspective may have prevented the jettisoning of Keynesian models that had proved useful in the past and might have done so again. This highly readable book by Arie Arnon is a wonderful antidote to economists’ short time horizon and contributes mightily to restore the profession’s “collective memory” of the diversity of ideas within macroeconomics.” Professor Dani Rodrik, Harvard Kennedy School
