- Summary
- What sense is the student of economics to make of the seemingly irreconcilable positions espoused by rival schools of thought? How will the student be able to form a balanced judgement of the relative merits and demerits of, for example, the Keynesian and the monetarist approaches to macroeconomics? More fundamentally, what is a Keynesian and how does a Keynesian differ from a monetarist or a new classical macroeconomist. J.A. Trevithick provides a fascinating and highly readable account of macroeconomic theory. He places the emphasis squarely on the Keynesian approach, demonstrating clearly the role of earlier authors in Keynes's development of The General Theory. Moreover, he shows how new classical economics is a conscious reaction to the Keynesian approach. He provides a powerful re-statement of the continuance of Keynes's central role in macroeconomics despite many challenges. No-one, from whatever school, will be able to ignore this book.
