✦ Synopsis

Critiquing the rise of monetarism since the 1960s and the bowdlerization of Keynesian economics into a neoclassical general equilibrium model of the economy, Post Keynesian economics seeks to restore the original insights of John Maynard Keynes' General Theory. In a complete repudiation of the teachings of monetarism, the major emphasis is on the endogeneity of the money supply with the causal arrow running from the price level to the demand for money. The role of financial innovations is examined as the primary cause of the ineffectiveness of contemporary monetary policy through parmatric shifts of the income velocity of money curve. The main conclusion is that traditional monetary and fiscal policy cannot alone serve to stabilize the economy at full employment. Both have to be supplemented with an effective incomes policy plus and a selective control over the flow of credit in the economy. The 'general liquidity' thesis of the Radcliffe Committee Report is revived as the cornerstone of Post Keynesian monetary economics.
