Abstract: This paper argues that the new “Keynesian macroeconomics” presents someweak points by ignoring the long-run effects of aggregate demand on the working of theeconomic system. In order to introduce this1 reality, the paper shows that it is necessary todefine the relationships between real wage and unemployment in a manner that sheds lighton the crucial policies of employment and growth. This is done by introducing an investmentfunction which makes possible to determine different long run paths for the economyaccording to the state of the “animal spirits” of the entrepreneurs. JEL Classification: B22; E12.
