This book advances Post-Keynesian Institutional economics, an integrative tradition – inspired by keen economic observers such as John Kenneth Galbraith, Joan Robinson, and Hyman Minsky – that bridges Institutional and Post Keynesian economics. The tradition proved its worth by addressing the global financial crisis of 2007-2009, as well as by analyzing long-term trends accompanying the evolution of investor-driven ("money manager") capitalism, including financialization, spreading worker insecurity, and rising inequality. This Modern Guide begins with the history and contours of Post-Keynesian Institutionalism, and then breaks new ground, extending recent analyses of contemporary economic problems, sharpening concepts and methods, sketching new theories, and synthesizing ideas across research traditions. Written by leading scholars, this authoritative collection identifies policy-relevant frontiers-on matters ranging from social capital and economic democracy to feminism and environmental sustainability-thereby setting an ambitious agenda for further Post-Keynesian Institutionalist research.In addition to being useful as a statement of current Post-Keynesian Institutionalist issues and research, the book serves as both a valuable reference volume and a source of material appropriate for course adoption for undergraduate and graduate students. Policymakers and policy analysts dissatisfied with the status quo should also find the book of interest. It will likely be especially relevant to those concerned with financial instability, worker insecurity, and inequality, problems that in recent years have had considerable economic and political consequences.
