Full Employment and Growth Further Keynesian Essays on Policy

A collection of twenty-six essays written by Yale economics professor Tobin, "the Keynesian who won't quit" (and proud of it). These essays defend Keynesian policies against extremes of classical economics, as well as respond to recent economic developments in the areas of "globalization," the transition to capitalism in former communist economies, and the rise in poverty and inequality in the US. The volume is divided five parts dealing with macroeconomic, monetary, fiscal, international economic relations, and social policies. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
