Opis

Keynes often abandoned ideas previously developed and at times assumed positions which were contradictory to his earlier thought. This inconsistency is especially true of his thinking in the field of international economics where he alternated between fee trade and protection. This reissue (1987) examines the positions Keynes adopted in the years 1909-1946.
