A rejoinder to Tily
Abstract
As everyone knows, Keynes’s General Theory has generated a lot of different interpretations. Geoff Tily presents a brief statement of his own understanding of it in his comment to my paper and he questions my perspective. There are also different strands of post-Keynesianism, as I have myself explained in a number of places. Tily is closest to what has been called Fundamentalist Post Keynesianism.
