The Development of Swedish and Keynesian Macroeconomic Theory and its Impact on Economic Policy

These lectures are concerned with the origins of the distinctive policies of the Stockholm School of Economics, of which Lundberg was a leading member. He explores the historical development of the School and considers its place in the wider Keynesian tradition which dominated macroeconomic thinking in the West from the 1930s till the 1970s. The author examines the failure of Keynesian policies both in Sweden and internationally, and offers remedies for future policy-makers to ponder upon.
