Mainstream Neoclassical macroeconomics ignores banks, debt and money; Post Keynesian economics considers them but hasn’t yet incorporated the role of private debt into its macroeconomics. This lecture makes the logical case for the role of private debt in macroeconomics, and models Minsky’s Financial Instability Hypothesis. Warning: sound in part B of this lecture sucks!

Steve Keen
Steve Keen (born 28 March 1953) is an Australian-born, British-based economist and author. He considers himself a post-Keynesian, criticising neoclassical economics as inconsistent, unscientific and empirically unsupported. The major influences on Keen's thinking about economics include John Maynard Keynes, Karl Marx, Hyman Minsky, Piero Sraffa, Augusto Graziani, Joseph Alois Schumpeter, Thorstein Veblen, and François Quesnay.
