Davidson explains the importance of the market economy, and unveils how and why global financial crises occur when the liquidity of financial assets traded in the market, suddenly collapse. 70 years after Keynes' death, in another era of financial crisis and economic slump, Keynes' ideas have made a comeback within economic circles. Yet these ideas are not represented in contemporary government policy decisions. This book explains why Keynes' ideas need to be used by political parties in order to restore global prosperity and close the gap between income and wealth inequality. This book will is essential reading for researchers, practitioners, students and the wider public interested in an economic understanding of today's global economic problems. 606 $aEconomics$xHistory 606 $aInternational economic relations 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aHistory of Economic Thought and Methodology 606 $aInternational Political Economy' 606 $aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics 615 0$aEconomics$xHistory. 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 14$aHistory of Economic Thought and Methodology. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy'. 615 24$aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics. 676 $a330.1509 700 $aDavidson$b Paul$f1930-2024,$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01741812 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255055203321 996 $aWho's afraid of John Maynard Keynes$94171856 997 $aUNINA
