Publisher's Synopsis

This important book presents a thematic selections of essays by leading post Keynesian economists from Europe and North America.

It focuses on a major feature of post Keynesian economics namely the interrelationships between pricing, distribution and growth. It is no accident that these aspects were emphasised in the work of the founding fathers particularly Kalecki and Keynes. Included in the present volume are essays by scholars who have made significant contributions to our understanding of these relationships. Lying behind them is the emphasis on the role of time and uncertainty that initially comes from the works of Keynes, Kalecki and Kaldor.

The book offers a thorough coverage of both pricing and distribution as well as the related issue of growth which has, hitherto, been comparatively neglected. It also provides a critical appraisal of certain aspects of main stream economics.
