The Keynesian Model in the General Theory: A Tutorial

Economics 2017-08-28 v1

Abstract

This small overview of the General Theory is the kind of summary I would have liked to have read, before embarking in a comprehensive study of the General Theory at the time I was a student. As shown here, the main ideas are quite simple and easy to visualize. Unfortunately, numerous introductions to Keynesian theory are not actually based on Keynes opus magnum, but in obscure neoclassical reinterpretations. This is completely pointless since Keynes' book is so readable.
