The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money is Keynes' masterpiece published right after the Great Depression. It sought to bring about a revolution, commonly referred to as the "Keynesian Revolution", in the way economists thought especially challenging the proposition that a market economy tends naturally to restore itself to full employment on its own. Regarded widely as the cornerstone of Keynesian thought, this book challenged the established classical economics and introduced new concepts. It remains a relevant topic of debate to this day, perhaps more than ever. Given the economic turmoil of recent years, this debate is more heated than ever before, between the Keynesian model of economics of Bush and Obama which favors bailouts and other government intervention to try to stabilize the market, and the Austrian school of economics which sees government intervention as detrimental and favors letting the market sort itself out on its own with minimal government interference and regulation. You decide.

2011 Reprint of 1930 Two Volume American Edition. Complete. Two volumes bound into one. Volume One: "The Pure Theory of Money". Volume Two: "The Applied Theory of Money". Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Volumes One and Two of Keynes' classic work published in a handy one volume format. Exact facsimile of the original Edition. Keynes had begun a theoretical work to examine the relationship between unemployment, money and prices back in the 1920s. The work was originally published in 1930 in two volumes. We reproduce this two volume edition in one volume. A central idea of the work was that if the amount of money being saved exceeds the amount being invested - which can happen if interest rates are too high - then unemployment will rise. This is in part a result of people not wanting to spend too high a proportion of what employers pay out, making it difficult, in aggregate, for employers to make a profit.

(The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money The ...)
The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money The "Keynesian Revolution" Complete Edition By John Maynard Keynes The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money was written by the English economist John Maynard Keynes. The book, generally considered to be his magnum opus, is largely credited with creating the terminology and shape of modern macroeconomics. Published in February 1936, it sought to bring about a revolution, commonly referred to as the "Keynesian Revolution", in the way economists thought – especially in relation to the proposition that a market economy tends naturally to restore itself to full employment after temporary shocks. Regarded widely as the cornerstone of Keynesian thought, the book challenged the established classical economics and introduced important concepts such as the consumption function, the multiplier, the marginal efficiency of capital, the principle of effective demand and liquidity preference. The central argument of The General Theory is that the level of employment is determined, not by the price of labour as in neoclassical economics, but by the spending of money (aggregate demand). Keynes argues that it is wrong to assume that competitive markets will, in the long run, deliver full employment or that full employment is the natural, self-righting, equilibrium state of a monetary economy. On the contrary, under-employment and under-investment are likely to be the natural state unless active measures are taken. One implication of The General Theory is that a lack of competition is not the fundamental problem and measures to reduce unemployment by cutting wages or benefits are not only hard-hearted but ultimately futile.

In this book Nobel Laureate Sir John Hicks draws together the common threads of over fifty years of writing on monetary economics into a succinct statement of the fundamentals of monetary theory. Confronting the failure of both standard classical and neoclassical theory to fill the gap between monetary and non-monetary economics, he posits an idea of competitive markets that can be linked to the monetary sector, and explains the way in which economic theory has been adjusted to reflect developments in the real economy.

This work provides a systematic statement of the theoretical position of the Chicago school on monetary economics. Milton Friedman restates the quantity theory of money and discusses the significance of its revival after a period of eclipse by the Keynesian view. Four empirical studies by Phillip Cogan, John J. Klein, Eugene M. Lerner, and Richard T. Selden are provided in support of the theory. The four studies...of inflation during and after the world wars and in the U.S. over the past century...show a striking regularity in economic response to monetary change. They will be of particular interest to monetary theorists, to empirical investigators in this area, and to economic historians and theorists generally. CONTENTS: The Quantity Theory of Money...A Restatement (Friedman) * The Monetary Dynamics of Hyperinflation (Cagan) * German Money and Prices, 1932-44 (Klein) * Inflation in the Confederacy, 1861-65 (Lerner) * Monetary Velocity in the United States (Selden)

As such, it is one of the main building blocks of the complex structure of social relations of capitalism itself.

This book provides a comprehensive overview, in the form of eight long essays, of the evolution of monetary theory over the three-quarters of century, from the time of Keynes to the present day. The essays are originally based on lecture notes from a graduate course on Advanced Monetary Economics offered at York University, Toronto, written in the style of academic papers. The essays are mathematical in method -- but also take a historical perspective, tracing the evolution of monetary thought through the Keynesian model, the monetarist model, new classical model, etc, up to and including the neo-Wickesellian models of the early 21st century. The book will be an essential resource for both graduate and advanced undergraduate students in economics, as well as for individual researchers seeking basic information on the theoretical background of contemporary debates. Readership: Graduate and advanced undergraduate courses in monetary theory.

LARGE PRINT EDITION! More at LargePrintLiberty.com. John Bates Clark was an American adherent of the Marginalist School who engaged the Austrians and learned from them. He delivered many blows against the Historical School in favor of the idea of pure theory. He was also one of the first economists to emphasize the importance of potential completion in markets with a single or few firms and to view competition as a rivalrous process. Clark contributed to laying the foundation of what would later become a distinctly American Austrian School.

Early work concentrated on functioning of the failing Bretton Woods international monetary system. Major contributions included: estimation of asset demand equations for central banks showing sensitivity to expected returns on dollars and gold in reserve holding decisions by central banks. Implications of central bank switching between holdings of dollars and gold for the viability of the dollar-exchange standard.
And analysis of the ability of Special Drawing Rights to coexist with other reserve assets that accurately predicted their lack of widespread acceptance in subsequent years.
A series of empirical articles on the Eurodollar market helped to dispel the ‘mystery’ surrounding that new phenomenon by showing that the Eurodollar system operated much like a fractional reserve system of financial intermediaries already familiar to students of money and banking. This body of work led to investigation of the effect of increased exchange rate flexibility on demand for reserves by central banks. Further investigation of the effects of exchange-rate flexibility on real trade volume suggested that no systematic link existed.
In a series of articles applying standard portfolio theory to the management of foreign-exchange risk, it was shown that financial managers can deal with such risk by altering payables and receivables in different currencies to achieve an optimal set of long and short positions in various major currencies.
Viewed in this way the forward market is only a residual means to adjust exposure, not the only means, as suggested by some analysts.
A series of articles, begun with Maurice Levi and completed on my own, investigated behaviour of real and nominal interest rates employing reduced-form equations derived from an articulated structure of both closed
and open economies. The procedure shows that the popular Fisher equation really should be viewed as a reducedform equation, and this paved the way for interpreting results of estimated equations for interest rates in a way that explains why — despite taxes on interest earnings — most estimated coefficients attached to expected inflation lie below unity.
