Brazilian Journal of Political Economy, 1989, vol. 9, issue 4, 551-561

Abstract: The general objective of this piece is to analyze the formulations developed bythree interpretative strands of Keynes’ investment theory, specifically with regard to theinterrelationships between real and monetary-financial variables. After highlighting the innovativecharacter of Keynes’ formulation on the issue, the author goes through the approachesof neo-Keynesians (neoclassical synthesis), post-Keynesians, and New Keynesians,in an attempt to focus on the central question of the article, that is, to assess the existenceor not of possible relationships between the new Keynesians and the two other approacheswith regard to the links between finance and investment. In particular, the author aims toassess whether or not the formulations of the new Keynesians represent a convergence betweenneo and post visions. JEL Classification: E12; E22.
