On Political Economists and Political Economy
Included in this volume are papers which are recognized as some of the foundations of post-Keynesian Economics, analysing problems set in historical time and starting from 'real world' observations. The book reflects Geoff Harcourt's contribution to economic debate over more than three decades. It also includes intellectual biographies of some of the most prominent and leading unorthodox economists, such as Kenneth Boulding, Eric Russell and Lorie Tarshis.
Capital Controversy, Post-Keynesian Economics and the History of Economic Thought
Geoff Harcourt has made substantial and wide ranging contributions to economics in general, and to post Keynesian economics in particular. In this volume more than 40 leading economists pay tribute to and critically evaluate his work. In particular, contributions focus on: debates in the area of Captial Theory; the development of post Keynesian economics and the Cambridge tradition; and major figures in history of economic thought including Marx, Keynes and Sraffa. The contributors represent a wide range of schools in economics, and include Nobel Laureates Paul Samuelson and Robert Solow.
The Structure of Post-Keynesian Economics
This is a major contribution to post-Keynesian thought. With studies of the key pioneers, Geoff Harcourt emphasises their positive contributions to theories of distribution, pricing, accumulation, endogenous money and growth. The volume will appeal to students and researchers interested in alternative approaches to theoretical, applied and policy issues in economics.
Some Cambridge Controversies in the Theory of Capital
Capital theory traditionally spans two major compartments of economic theory: the theory of production of both individual products and the total product, and the theory of the distribution of the aggregate product between the different classes of capitalist society. It has always been controversial, partly because the subject matter is difficult and partly because rival ideologies and value systems impinge directly on the subject matter. In the present book the various topics associated with the exchanges between the 'neo-Keynesians' and the 'neo-neoclassicals' are discussed and evaluated. The topics include the measurement of capital, the revival of interest in Irving Fisher's rate of return on investment, the double-switching debate, Sraffa's prelude to a critique of neoclassical theory, and the 'new' theories of the rate of profits in capitalist society.
Markets, Unemployment, and Economic Policy
In this volume more than 40 leading economists critically evaluate the work of Geoff Harcourt. Contributors include Tony Atkinson, Tony Lawson, Edward Nell and Ian Steedman.

The Structure of Post-Keynesian Economics
This is a major contribution to post-Keynesian thought. With studies of the key pioneers - Keynes himself, Kalecki, Kahn, Goodwin, Kaldor, Joan Robinson, Sraffa and Pasinetti - G. C. Harcourt emphasizes their positive contributions to theories of distribution, pricing, accumulation, endogenous money and growth. The propositions of earlier chapters are brought together in an integrated narrative and interpretation of the major episodes in advanced capitalist economics in the post-war period, leading to a discussion of the relevance of post-Keynesian ideas to both our understanding of economics and to policy-making. The appendices include biographical sketches of the pioneers and analysis of the conceptual core of their discontent with orthodox theories. Drawing on the author's experience of teaching and researching over fifty years, this book will appeal to undergraduate and graduate students interested in alternative approaches to theoretical, applied and policy issues in economics, as well as to teachers and researchers in economics.
Capitalism, Socialism, and Post-Keynesianism
This work begins with three essays on policy issues: the case for a middle way between command economies and free market economies; the broad principles of fiscal policy for Australia in the 1990s; and an integrated set of modest proposals to get the world economy on the path to prosperity. All approaches used in these essays are associated with the broad church of post-Keynesianism and the belief that economics should produce a more just and equitable society. Later essays analyze theoretical topics in an historical context. The remaining papers are a selection of intellectual biographies, and general esays which range from the author's views on the relationship between mathematics and economics to what Adam Smith really said.
