The Kaldor Legacy

Geoffrey Harcourt

Chapter 18 in 50 Years a Keynesian and Other Essays, 2001, pp 238-259 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Causes of Growth and Stagnation in the World Economy is in a profound sense Nicky Kaldor’s last will and testament to our profession. The book arises from his 1984 Raffaele Mattioli Lectures which he had not finished preparing for publication when he died in September 1986. Subsequently, Ferdinando Targetti and Tony Thirlwall (his biographers), and Carlo Filippini, were asked to prepare the manuscript for publication, together with the account of the discussion of the lectures and reprints of Thirlwall’s splendid memoir of Kaldor (which was originally published in the Proceedings of the British Academy, Thirlwall (1987)), and Targetti’s Bibliography of the Works of Nicholas Kaldor, Targetti (1988). The book is beautifully produced, worthy of its subject and the distinguished series in which it has been included.
