Keynes’ teacher Alfred Marshall agreed with Farr in 1990’. As I read this passage, Marshall interpreted maintenance consumption as investment. So did B. F.

maternal generation length in recent decades, by that method, has run near 26 years over recent decades. If fathers are five years older on average, Fisher’s method would arrive at 28.5 years.

vailable for business to borrow and invest. But business lacked the “animal spirits” to take such a risk ina slump. We saw the same story after 2008. Keynes’ proposal was for government to do the borrowing and investing instead. That’s part of the “fiscal policy” I described in Chapter 1. Here we tend to

saving is invested, as I use the word, but finds different returns. Saving under the mattress is investment at zero return, and drops output just as Keynes said. Investment at the current average return keeps output unchanged. That’s what Keynes meant. But investment at lower returns lowers output, and c

Frank Knight revived both ideas in the early 20" century. The tempo picked up after World War IJ at the University of Chicago.

Since at least the time of Keynes, investment and saving have been at the heart of macroeconomic modelling, and this is true of neo-classical and other heterodox modelling, not just

mishandling of credit availability. In parallel with this Minsky, coming primarily from the post-Keynesian school, but also following the work of Fisher, has also studied the build up of economic cycles, though with the blame being primarily placed with speculation and the unsustainable endogenous cr

Unlike static equilibria, dynamic equilibria can have multiple points of stability. The point of equilibrium that is reached depends on
