Synopsis
Davidson sought to explain how Keynesian economics can lead the way out of the 2008 financial crisis. Davidson explained how the crisis was created, gave an explanation of Keynesian policies, and then offered advice on how to reform the current international trade and monetary systems to conform to Keynes’s ideas. In his appendix, he offered his view that “true” Keynesian theory was never taught in American universities and therefore had not been applied to the economy of the United States.
