Publisher's Synopsis
""The Critics of Keynesian Economics"" is a book written by Henry Hazlitt and published in 1960. The book provides a comprehensive critique of the economic theories of John Maynard Keynes, who is widely regarded as one of the most influential economists of the 20th century. Hazlitt argues that Keynesian economics, which emphasizes government intervention in the economy to stimulate growth and reduce unemployment, is flawed and ultimately ineffective. He contends that Keynesian policies lead to inflation, higher taxes, and a decrease in economic freedom. Hazlitt also examines the work of other economists who have criticized Keynesianism, such as Friedrich Hayek and Ludwig von Mises. Overall, ""The Critics of Keynesian Economics"" is a thought-provoking analysis of one of the most important economic debates of the modern era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
