Overview

Post-Keynesian Growth Theory is the second volume of Marc Lavoie's Selected Essays, and is a collection of 18 articles published between 1995 and 2020, on themes touching growth and distribution. The book contains an extended foreword by Eckhard Hein, and an introduction by Lavoie that recalls how he became attracted to post-Keynesian growth theory more than 45 years ago, and explains how and why this book came about. The collection includes a number of papers showing Lavoie's evolving approach to neo-Kaleckian models of growth and distribution, incorporating hysteresis, overhead labour, monetary issues, price inflation, as well as various sources of autonomous non-capacity creating expenditures. It shows how all of these interact with alternative Marxian or Sraffian approaches as well. A section of the book is also devoted to two-sector models, in particular the issue of the traverse from one equilibrium to another, extending the Kaleckian model but also providing insights into the works of Hicks and Pasinetti. Both professors and graduate students will benefit from the decades of experience and wisdom amassed and presented in Post-Keynesian Growth Theory.

Reviews

'Post-Keynesian Growth Theory by Marc Lavoie is a fascinating collection of essays showing us how a leading post-Keynesian economist got involved in working on growth and distribution. It is an essential volume for researchers and students alike to explore the key contributions in post-Keynesian theories of growth and distribution in historical context as the controversies and debates evolve.' -- Ozlem Onaran, University of Greenwich, UK 'Even before now it could easily have been said of Marc Lavoie that he had written the book on Post-Keynesian growth theory. And now he really has. This collection of essays displays remarkable breadth, rigour, and coherence, and is a must-read for any serious scholar in the field.' -- Mark Setterfield, New School For Social Research, US


‘The essays in this book show the promises, fruits and avenues for future research in post-Keynesian growth theory. Far from an exhausted paradigm, this book shows that PKE has maintained its vitality and relevance in advancing support for a demand-led view of long-run economic growth. Professors and students will bene?t from the many insights and remarks of this book, as a whole or in speci?c chapters, as a guide for approaching the dynamics of modern economies.’ -- Pablo G.
