Thirlwall's Law at 40
Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd (Verlag)
978-1-80088-146-4 (ISBN)
Thirlwall's law provides a theoretical underpinning for several of the arguments traditionally espoused by the heterodox followers of Keynes. In addition, Thirlwall's law can also be viewed as a guide to policy-making. It has spurred a rich research agenda at both the theoretical and empirical levels. Theoretically the core model has been extended to include the different components of the current account of the balance of payments. Empirically, it has withstood the test of time and has been corroborated, with perhaps a few exceptions, for a variety of developed and developing countries under different historical contexts and different periods of time.
This re-release of the special issue of the Review of Keynesian Economics brings together experts and researchers to present the latest developments and debates on Thirlwall's law. Students, economists and policy makers will find this volume enlightening.
Edited by Thomas Palley, Founding Editor of the Review of Keynesian Economics and Principal at the Economics for Democratic and Open Societies, US, Esteban Pérez Caldentey, Editor of the Review of Keynesian Economics and Chief of the Financing for Development Unit at the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (CEPAL), Chile and Matías Vernengo, Founding Editor of the Review of Keynesian Economics and Professor, Bucknell University, US
