More Information
This Encyclopedia is an invaluable reference book for post-Keynesian and heterodox economics. It consists of 300 entries, written by 180 different authors. The volume includes entries on key concepts of interest to post-Keynesians as well as descriptions of some of the seminal books in the post-Keynesian tradition. It will interest both students and scholars of heterodox economics, as well as policy makers around the world looking for a better alternative to mainstream economic policies at national and international levels in the aftermath of the global financial crisis that burst in 2008 and the COVID-19 pandemic crisis that began in 2020.

Key Features:
• Offers a non-conventional understanding of economic analysis on a number of key economic topics
• Provides a deep and convincing criticism of orthodox thinking
• Explains how money, banking and finance are crucial elements of economics today
• Addresses the roots of the 2008 global financial crisis
• Points out the importance of sound economic policies
• Presents the essence of the subject matter concisely

This comprehensive reference work will be a key tool to students, scholars, policy makers and anyone else seeking to understand the world economy through the important lens of post-Keynesian thought.
Critical Acclaim
‘Rochon and Rossi compile an excellent overview of the origins and current state of post-Keynesian economic theory. Consisting of more than 300 entries by roughly 170 authors, the volume is geared toward economists of all levels, particularly the “younger generation” of economists and economics students. Entries generally do an excellent job of covering the historical and current aspects of a given concept, and some entries assess the impacts of both the 2008 economic crisis and COVID-19. Each entry includes detailed references, notes, and charts, where applicable. Ultimately, Rochon and Rossi have assembled a volume that fits nicely within the larger collection of Elgar encyclopedia and the current landscape of introductory texts on post-Keynesian economics.
