The Fall of Keynesianism?

Geoffrey Harcourt, October 15, Little Hall, Sidgwick Site

The Cambridge Society for Economic Pluralism invites you to its first Michaelmas lecture on the "Fall of Keynesianism" by Geoffrey Harcourt.

Prof. Harcourt will rely on his decades of experience in Economics to retrace the recent history of the discipline and the fall of the Keynesian school in the past decades.

About the speaker:

Geoffrey Harcourt is an Australian academic economist, who studied at the University of Melbourne and then at the King's College, Cambridge. 

He was a University Lecturer (1982–90) and Reader (1990–98) in the Faculty of Economics at Cambridge and a Fellow and College Lecturer in Economics, Jesus College, Cambridge 1982–1998 and was President of Jesus College Cambridge, 1988–89 and 1990–92.

He has made major contributions to the understanding of the ideas of Keynes, Joan Robinson and other Cambridge economists. He has also made important contributions in his own right to Post Keynesian and post Kaleckian theory. A review article[2] of one his volumes of 'Selected Essays' argues that (i) insofar as he has written on capital theory, it has been as an innovator and not as a mere raconteur, and (ii) that he has developed his own suite of post-Keynesian models – this is evident for example in his 1965 paper “A two-sector model of the distribution of income and the level of employment in the short-run” which is reprinted in The Social Science Imperialists: Selected Essays of G.C. Harcourt.

About CSEP:

The Cambridge Society for Economic Pluralism (CSEP) is run by a dedicated group of students united by the belief that progress in the discipline of economics will be driven by an increasingly interdisciplinary approach and a pluralist platform in the 21st century. CSEP aims to enrich the understanding of economic thought within the Cambridge community and promote alternative views on conventional economic thought as well as current affairs in an innovative discussion format.
