Description and Table of Contents

Description

This book contributes to the debate between monetarist, Keynesian and supply-side views of economic theory, and analyzes and compares the empirical experiences of the economic policies of the six major industrialized countries of the 1980s. The volume opens with an article by the Nobel Laureate economist, James Tobin followed by two survey articles. Section two presents a debate on the relevance of the Keynesian contribution in the 1980s which includes analysis by Walter Eltis and several Italian economists. The core of the book is found in section three where essays focus on the national economic policies of the six leading industrial countries: the USA, Japan, Germany, France, the UK and Italy.
