» macroeconomics
John Maynard Keynes was a British economist who wrote extensively during the 1920s and 1930s. His work is still considered important today and has since become referred to as Keynesian economics. Up until the 1970s his ideas had a huge impact on government economic intervention in Europe. The economic collapse of 2008 saw Keynes’ ideas once again enter the spotlight, but there has also been a public backlash against the interventionist policies he favored.
Macroeconomics is interested in how the economy works overall. This is a subject that is of great interest to a lot of people in the general public and not just students and economists. An understanding of macroeconomics can help people have a much better understanding about how our world functions and why governments and international agencies might be behaving as they do. There are many great books about macroeconomics and we will only be able to examine some of the very best of them here.
