The Economic Consequences of the Peace

Meer over het boek

Keynes, a pivotal figure in 20th-century economics, was raised in a distinguished family and educated at Eton and King's College, where he mingled with notable intellectuals. His role as an economic advisor at the 1919 Paris Peace Conference catalyzed his critique of the Versailles Treaty in "The Economic Consequences of the Peace," which challenged prevailing political practices and established his reputation. His influential ideas sparked the "Keynesian Revolution," significantly shaping modern macroeconomic theory and policy. This edition features premium acid-free paper.
