Opis

Nine leading scholars discuss the nine main ideas that, according to Luigi Pasinetti, characterize the Classical-Keynesian approach.

Recenzje

'In a very long and extremely productive career, Luigi Pasinetti has made some major contributions to heterodox economic theory from a classical-Keynesian perspective. His methodological claims, however, have received less critical attention. In this original and stimulating volume fifteen scholars explore the important methodological issues raised by Pasinetti, including questions of realism, rigour, ergodicity, causation, disequilibrium and the supposed microfoundations of macroeconomics. Essential reading!' John E. King, La Trobe University
