Kingston Masters Economic Change and Ideas Lecture 08

Summary:
This lecture starts with Yaroufakis’s critique of Neoclassical methodology and then proposes an alternative based on macroeconomic definitions and complexity theory. I build a couple of dynamics models in Minsky from scratch, and I make a few mistakes too on the way too (which I corrected once back at home, and inserted into this video). ...

Topics:
Steve Keen considers the following as important:

This could be interesting, too:

Jeremy Smith writes UK workers’ pay over 6 years – just about keeping up with inflation (but one sector does much better…)

Robert Vienneau writes The Emergence of Triple Switching and the Rarity of Reswitching Explained

Lars Pålsson Syll writes Schuldenbremse bye bye

Robert Skidelsky writes Lord Skidelsky to ask His Majesty’s Government what is their policy with regard to the Ukraine war following the new policy of the government of the United States of America.

One additional mistake was that I stuffed up the sliding window graph feature of Minsky by having the boundaries the wrong way around. That’s fixed in the sample files I will put up on my Patreon page https://www.patreon.com/ProfSteveKeen.



Steve Keen
Steve Keen (born 28 March 1953) is an Australian-born, British-based economist and author.

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.
