Introductory Lectures
Marc Lavoie, University of Paris 13, France
Marc Lavoie opens the introductory workshop with his lecture “History and fundamentals of Post-Keynesian Macroeconomics”. He talks about the post-Keynesian school of thought from a history of ideas perspective and gives an overview about the main features and different strands of post-Keynesian economics.
Daniela Gabor, University of the West of England, GB
In the second introductory lecture, Daniela Gabor talks about “Institutional supercycles, shadow banking and the climate crisis”. In her talk she explores the conditions under which Europe could put into practice its commitment to green the economy and become a leader in a forthcoming Green supercycle.
Steven Fazzari, Washington University in St. Louis, USA
In the final lecture of the introductory workshop, Steven Fazzari talks about “Inequality and aggregate demand”. In his lecture he assesses the question how rising inequality can explain unconventional macroeconomic outcomes through an intrinsic Keynesian theoretical lens.
