[A]cademics, analysts and policy makers will be well served to consider Eatwell and Milgate's view of Keynesian response to the current economic situation in order to understand better the interventionist fiscal and monetary responses being debated so heatedly today., "This work restores the sense of the power of the Keynesian tradition of economic analysis and policy-making at a time when, just as with Keynes, the real conditions of global capitalism force recognition of the crisis-prone character of an unbridled market economy and the corresponding need for government to intervene with carefully-designed fiscal, monetary and regulatory controls to keep in check the often reckless 'animal spirits' of the entrepreneurs, restore balance, and prevent the jobless, powerless, and poor from falling through the cracks. It is written in a fluid style with tightly reasoned arguments engaging both theory and practice and much practical insight into contemporary problems of the world economy."--Donald J. Harris, Professor Emeritus of Economics, Stanford University"The Keynesian Revolution may be a distant memory and Keynes little studied now in economics departments or in Treasuries, but the financial crash of 2008 has reminded us why he should be. In this wide-ranging set of essays Eatwell and Milgate show just how supple and penetrating the Keynesian approach to economics can be. They dispel many of the myths that have grown around it, and make a powerful case that the questions posed by Keynes are still fundamental questions for understanding the modern economy and the policy options open to us."--Andrew Gamble, University of Cambridge, "This work restores the sense of the power of the Keynesian tradition of economic analysis and policy-making at a time when, just as with Keynes, the real conditions of global capitalism force recognition of the crisis-prone character of an unbridled market economy and the corresponding need for government to intervene with carefully-designed fiscal, monetary and regulatory controls to keep in check the often reckless 'animal spirits' of the entrepreneurs, restore balance, and prevent the jobless, powerless, and poor from falling through the cracks.

Synopsis
During the 1970s, when doctrines like monetarism and new classical macroeconomics ushered in an era of neoliberal economic policymaking, Keynesian economics was pushed aside. It was almost forgotten that when Keynesian thinking had dominated economic policymaking in the middle decades of the twentieth century, it had underwritten postwar economic reconstruction in both Europe and Japan, and was largely responsible for the unprecedented prosperity and stable growth of the 1950s and 1960s. The global financial crisis and recession changed all that. Influential voices in progressive economics circles began to remind us how useful Keynesian ways of thinking could be again, especially in assisting us to come to terms with our economic predicaments. When politicians across the globe were confronted with economic crisis, almost by accident they introduced pragmatic and workable measures that bore all the hallmarks of Keynesianism. This book is about this fall and rise of Keynesian economics. Eatwell and Milgate range widely across the landscape that defines their subject matter. They consider how powerful Keynesian ideas can be when applied to our past and present economic problems. They show how helpful these ideas are in explaining why we came to find ourselves in the mess we are in. They examine where and how the analytical and methodological foundations of conventional macroeconomic wisdom went wrong. They set out a blueprint for an alternative that provides a clearer, more consistent, and more applicable approach to understanding how markets work. They also highlight the interpretive shortcomings that have come to characterize Keynes scholarship itself. They do all of this within the context of a provocative reconsideration of some of the most pressing economic problems that confront financial markets and the global economy today., During the 1970s, monetarism and the new classical macroeconomics ushered in an era of neoliberal economic policymaking. Keynesian economics was pushed aside. It was almost forgotten that when Keynesian thinking had dominated economic policymaking in the middle decades of the twentieth century, it had coincided with postwar economic reconstruction in both Europe and Japan, and the unprecedented prosperity and stable growth of the 1950s and 1960s. The global financial crisis of 2007-2009 and the recession that followed changed all that. Influential voices in both academic economics and amongst policy-makers and commentators began to remind us how useful Keynesian ways of thinking could be, especially in coming to terms with our current economic predicaments. When politicians across the globe were confronted with economic crisis, they introduced pragmatic and workable measures that bore all the hallmarks of Keynesianism. This book is about the fall and rise of Keynesian economics. Eatwell and Milgate range widely across the landscape that defines their subject matter. They consider how powerful Keynesian ideas can be when applied to past and present economic problems. They show how helpful these ideas are in explaining why we came to find ourselves in the disorder we are in. They examine where and how the analytical and methodological foundations of conventional macroeconomic wisdom went wrong. They set out a blueprint for an alternative that provides a clearer, more consistent, and more applicable approach to understanding how markets work. They also highlight the interpretive shortcomings that have come to characterize Keynes scholarship itself. They do all of this within the context of a provocative reconsideration of some of the most pressing economic problems that confront financial markets and the global economy today. They conclude that Keynesian ideas are not just for crises, but for constructive economic policy making at all times., The simple message of Eatwell & Milgate's Fall and Rise of Keynesian Economics is that it was inevitable that Keynesian economics would rise again when circumstances conspired to make it apparent that conventional macroeconomic thinking had lost its way and was unable to explain satisfactorily the most outstanding feature of our actual experience: financial instabilty and its effect on real economic activity., During the 1970s, monetarism and the new classical macroeconomics ushered in an era of neoliberal economic policymaking. Keynesian economics was pushed aside. It was almost forgotten that when Keynesian thinking had dominated economic policymaking in the middle decades of the twentieth century, it had coincided with postwar economic reconstruction in both Europe and Japan, and the unprecedented prosperity and stable growth of the 1950s and 1960s.
