Chapter Chapter 7 in Keynes as an Economist, World System Planner and Social Philosopher, 2024, pp 153-179 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter we examine Keynes’s activities as a planner of buffer stocks of primary commodities in the context and background of the UK political scene in the 1940s. Among other things, it is our aim to clarify (i) the significance of a buffer stock plan in Keynes’s economic thought, and (ii) how and why the plan was transmuted in the political situation of the time.
