Abstract

The publishing of a second edition of a macroeconomic textbook 17 years after the first edition is not an event that usually receives great attention – even if the subtitle promises that a ‘foundation for successful economic policies for the twenty-first century’ will be delivered. The second edition of Paul Davidson's textbook, Post Keynesian Macroeconomic Theory, however, should be an exception to the rule for at least three reasons.
