Heterodox macroeconomics: Keynes, Marx and globalization

"Heterodox Macroeconomics" offers a detailed understanding of the foundationsof the recent global financial crisis. The chapters, from a selection of leading academics in the field of heterodox macroeconomics, carry out a synthesis of heterodox ideas that place financial instability, macroeconomic crisis, rising global inequality and a grasp of the perverse and pernicious qualities of global and domestic macroeconomic policy making since 1980 into a coherent perspective. It familiarizes the reader with the emerging unified theory of heterodox macroeconomics and its applications. The book is divided into four key sections: Heterodox Macroeconomics and the Keynes-Marx synthesis; Accumulation, Crisis and Instability; The Macrodynamics of the Neoliberal Regime; and, Heterodox Macroeconomic Policy. The essays include theoretical, international, historical, and country perspectives on financial fragility and macroeconomic instability.
