The most influential and controversial economist of the twentieth
century, John Maynard Keynes was the leading founder of modern
macroeconomics, and was also an important historical figure as a
critic of the Versailles Peace Treaty after World War I and an
architect of the Bretton Woods international monetary system after
World War II. This comprehensive Companion elucidates his
contributions, his significance, his historical context and his
continuing legacy. Prominent scholars examine Keynes's life and
major writings, his theories and contributions, influences on the
development of his thought, his interactions with his
contemporaries, his followers and critics, the lasting significance
of his work and the changing fortunes of Keynesianism in different
countries. The concise but thorough and comprehensive entries are
arranged in eight parts: Life and Work, Influences, Major Works,
Economic Analysis, Critics and Contemporaries, Associates, Legacy
and Impact, and Keynesianism in Various Countries. The Companion
will serve as the standard reference work for all those interested
in John Maynard Keynes, in the economics of Keynes and in the
history of macroeconomics. Contributors include: N. Aslanbeigui, M.
