Interpreting Macroeconomics: Explorations in the History of Macroeconomic Thought Paperback - 1996

by Roger E. Backhouse


From the publisher

Interpreting Macroeconomics explores a variety of different approaches to macroeconomic thought. The book considers a number of historiographical and methodological positions, as well as analyzing various important episodes in the development of macroeconomics, before during and after the Keynesian revolution. Roger Backhouse shows that the full richness of these developments can only by brought out by approaches which blend both relativism and absolutism, and historical and rational reconstructions. Examples discussed include Hobson, Keynes and Friedman.

First line

Once upon a time (to inject the appropriate fairy-tale element into the story) historians of economic thought believed that they knew how to do their subject.
