Remembering Geoff Harcourt (1931–2021): a post-Keynesian pioneer

Selwyn Cornish and John Hawkins

Journal of Post Keynesian Economics, 2022, vol. 45, issue 2, 169-183

Abstract: Geoff Harcourt was esteemed for the quality of his prolific scholarship. He was a pioneering post-Keynesian economist who specialized in capital theory. But he also wrote on many other theoretical areas as well as contributing to policy debates and writing intellectual biographies. In addition to his published work, he made a remarkable contribution as a teacher and mentor, encouraging, supporting and guiding countless students and colleagues. His contributions to economics and public policy are therefore far more than the work he wrote himself. Generous, collegiate, encouraging and sympathetic, he was an outstanding person as well as a great economist.
