Book excerpt: Arguing that post-Keynesian economics extended the discussion to questions neglected by Keynes and challenged orthodox macroeconomics, King (economics, La Trobe U., Australia) traces the development of post-Keynesianism from its origins in the 1930s to possible future developments. Along the way, he examines the challenges of the theory to the neoclassical paradigm of the 1970s, its ultimate failure to prevail, the differences between various schools of post-Keynesian theory, and relations with other economic theories. He treats the topic as solely an intellectual history, not discussing how political and social power may have affected the ability of one or the other economic theories to prevail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A thorough, thoughtful, issue-related history such as this is just the thing to contribute to the growing maturity of post Keynesian economics, clarifying where we have got to now, and indicating how the approach might develop in the future. By making sense of the twists and turns of post Keynesian thought, John King provides a sense of coherence out of a complex process.' - Sheila C. Dow, University of Stirling, UK 'This book provides a thorough account of the evolution of post Keynesian economics from its origins in interpretations of the General Theory in the late 1930s through to the present day. During this period the character of post Keynesian economics has changed from denoting the ideas of a small number of interpreters of Keynes to a more organised dissenting group spread across several continents. John King's book will interest anyone who wants to understand this transition or who has an interest in the more general question of how and why heterodox traditions have been established in economics.' - Roger E. Backhouse, University of Birmingham, UK This is a unique, comprehensive and international history of the post Keynesian approach to economics since 1936. the author locates the origins of post Keynesian economics in the conflicting initial interpretations of Keynes's General Theory and in the complementary work of Michal Kalecki. the book begins by focusing on Cambridge Growth, Distribution and Capital theory and early post Keynesian thought in the US. the failure of post Keynesian theory to supplant the neo-classical paradigm in the 1970s is also discussed, along with an overview of post Keynesian thinking in other countries. the book then deals with the search for coherence between various strands of post Keynesian thought and other schools of economic thought. the author concludes by assessing the progress made by post Keynesian economics since 1936 and considers several possible alternative futures for the post Keynesians.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was originally published by Macmillan in 1936. It was voted the top Academic Book that Shaped Modern Britain by Academic Book Week (UK) in 2017, and in 2011 was placed on Time Magazine's top 100 non-fiction books written in English since 1923. Reissued with a fresh Introduction by the Nobel-prize winner Paul Krugman and a new Afterword by Keynes’ biographer Robert Skidelsky, this important work is made available to a new generation. The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money transformed economics and changed the face of modern macroeconomics. Keynes’ argument is based on the idea that the level of employment is not determined by the price of labour, but by the spending of money. It gave way to an entirely new approach where employment, inflation and the market economy are concerned. Highly provocative at its time of publication, this book and Keynes’ theories continue to remain the subject of much support and praise, criticism and debate. Economists at any stage in their career will enjoy revisiting this treatise and observing the relevance of Keynes’ work in today’s contemporary climate.

Book excerpt: Eichner's classic A Guide to Post-Keynesian Economics (1978) is still seen as the definitive staging post for those wishing to familiarise themselves with the Post-Keynesian School. This book brings the story up-to-date. Of all the subgroups within heterodox economics, Post-Keynesianism has provided the most convincing alternative to mainstream theory. The main representatives of the Post-Keynesianism from both sides of the Atlantic are represented here, including Paul Davidson, Geoff Harcourt and Sheila Dow.

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.
