This insightful book presents topics in applied dynamic macrotheory for closed and open economies. The authors give an advanced treatment of macroeconomic topics such as the Phillips curve, forward and backward looking behavior, open economy macrodynamics, structural macroeconometric model building as well as the empirics of Keynesian oriented macro models. The dynamics of open economies in the context of interacting two country models are treated as well.

This book investigates, from a Keynesian perspective, the interaction of effective demand with the wage-price spiral, the dependence of goods market outcomes on financial markets, and the impact of monetary policy on financial and real markets. These issues are discussed by way of rigorously formulated approaches that lay foundations for a theory of endogenously generated business fluctuations.
The material is presented on three levels of generality: an introductory level that motivates the theoretical approach, a research-oriented level that shows how the interaction of real with financial markets has to be modeled from an integrative Keynesian perspective, and an advanced textbook level that extends the traditional Keynesian approach to open economies. The main findings indicate that balanced growth in capitalist economies is unlikely due to changes in behavioral factors that drive the wage-price spiral and the financial markets.
This book is essential reading for advanced level macroeconomic modules and for those interested in both traditional macroeconomics and the dominant neoclassical approach of the New Keynesians.

This book extends the KMG framework (Keynes, Meltzer, Goodwin) and focuses on financial issues. It integrates Tobin's macroeconomic portfolio approach and emphasizes the issue of stock-flow consistency.

In dem Lehrbuch zur makrookonomischen Theorie werden die Einkommens-, Zins- und Beschaftigungstheorie, die Analyse von Inflation und Unterbeschaftigung sowie die Wachstumstheorie durchgangig aus keynesianscher Sicht betrachtet. Diese Ergebnisse stellen die Autoren insbesondere den Resultatendes Monetarismus sowie der Neo- und Neuklassik und dem derzeit dominanten Ansatz der New-Keynesians gegenuber. Damit bietet der Band eine wichtige Erganzung zu den Lehrbuchern, die Inflations- und Wachstumsprozesse primar aus neoklassischer Sicht analysieren.
