Three Views On Keynes The Economist

By R.F. Harrod and Joseph A. Schumpeter

Book Overview

""Three Views on Keynes: The Economist"" is a book written by R.F. Harrod that presents three different perspectives on the economic theories of John Maynard Keynes. The book is divided into three sections, each featuring an essay written by a prominent economist who provides their own interpretation of Keynesian economics. The first essay is written by Harrod himself and presents his own views on Keynesian economics. The second essay is written by James Tobin, who offers a more nuanced view of Keynesian economics, arguing that it is not a monolithic theory but rather a collection of ideas that can be adapted to different economic situations. The third essay is written by Don Patinkin, who presents a more critical view of Keynesian economics, arguing that it is not a complete theory and that it has limitations in its ability to explain economic phenomena. Overall, ""Three Views on Keynes: The Economist"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of Keynesian economics and the debates surrounding its use in economic policy.THIS 54 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The New Economics: Keynes' Influence on Theory and Public Policy, by R.
