This lecture models Minsky’s Financial Instability Hypothesis and shows that Minsky’s vision of a unstable economy emerge from a simple model derived directly from macroeconomic identities for the employment rate, the wages share of GDP, and the private debt to GDP ratio. This is the fourth of six lectures I recorded that I gave to the Exploring Economics Summer School (https://www.exploring-economics.org/en/summer-academy/details/) held just outside the city of Erfurt in southern Germany (I recorded all but the second lecture).


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.
