The monetary economy, savings and financing: from the Treatise to the General Theory

Ernani Teixeira Torres Filho ()

Brazilian Journal of Political Economy, 1991, vol. 11, issue 2, 183-197

Abstract: The idea of monetary economy played an important role in Keynes’s movement from the Treatise on Money (1930) to the General Theory (1936). He was trying to work a new economic paradigm, which in opposition to the classical Say’s Law, could deal with the fluctuations and uncertainties of the real world. The purpose of this article is to present Keynes’s theories of savings and finance in the Treatise and after and to show the importance of the 1936-1937’s version to the functioning of a real world economy.
