Michał Kalecki in the 21st Century

The 21st century has brought up a number of problems of economic depression, mass unemployment and debt, which have engaged the outstanding Polish economist of the 20th century Michał Kalecki.
In this volume leading experts on Kalecki from around the world have contributed special essays looking at what economists in the 21st century have to learn from the theories of Kalecki and how they relate to the issues raised by John Maynard Keynes. Authors include surviving students of Kalecki, such as Amit Bhaduri, Mario Nuti, Kazimierz Laski and the editor of Kalecki's Collected Works Jerzy Osiatyński, and leading Post-Keynesian economists such as Joseph Halevi, G.C. Harcourt, Marc Lavoie, Edwin Le Heron and Malcolm Sawyer.
Their studies bring together 20th-century economic theory and 21st-century economic problems. It is essential reading for scholars, researchers and students interested in economic history and theory, and would be beneficial to current policy-makers.
