Background to the Robertson-Keynes Debate

John R. Presley

Chapter 2 in Robertsonian Economics, 1978, pp 75-91 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract ‘In the early 1910s and again in the 1920s I did do a bit of scrambling towards the frontier (of economic thought), firmly roped to the man of genius who has perished there. Sometimes I venture to think, I was even a little bit in front of him; but in the end he went on beyond me, and it is my belief — an unpopular one, I know, but I cannot help it — that he got a bit off the track and set the flag in places where it is not destined to rest’.1
