Kalecki: an anti-Keynesian?

Author

Listed:
  • Carlos Águedo Nagel Paiva

Abstract

This article aims to investigate the determinants of the limited diffusion andtheoretical acceptance of Kalecki’s work. In my opinion, the roots of the resistance tothis author comes from the unusual way he combines the theoretical, methodological andanalytical elements in his work. More specifically, it’s necessary to notice that, despite thetheoretical substratum of his work is keynesian, the pattern of investigation and expositionused by Kalecki is structuralist and comes up against Keynes’ methodological individualism.This contradiction – the center of Keynes and Kalecki’s usually hard dialogue – also limitsthe dialogue with those two other schools our author considered scientific in Economics, theMarxism and the (neoclassical) Econometrics. JEL Classification: B22; B31.
