Description: This important new book explores the significance of Keynes beyond the confines of the orthodox debate. The neoclassical counter-revolution has persuaded many professional economists to continue to view Keynes as interpretable within the market-theoretic framework. The contributors to this volume seek to journey beyond the bounded vision of orthodoxy and assess the implications of Keynes being something more than an economist. The Philosophy and Economics of J.M. Keynes ranges across the entire post-Keynesian spectrum as well as spanning the different generations of the Keynesian era and its aftermath. The book will appeal to all levels of the economic profession with an interest in the practical implications of theoretical discourse as well as those with an interest in the history of economic analysis.
