Abstract

In April 1936 Michał and Adela Kalecki arrived in London, where they rented a room in 34 Coram Street, just off Russell Square, in the Bloomsbury area. Kalecki would not have been aware at the time that Keynes was living just around the corner, in Gordon Square. It is more likely that the Kaleckis came there because another Polish economist from Lange’s Union of Independent Socialist Youth, Wladysław Malinowski, was already lodging there.1 The location was convenient, too, for getting to the London School of Economics, where in addition to learning English as fast as he could, Kalecki attended the research seminar organised by Lionel Robbins. The house in Coram Street was demolished in the 1960s to make way for the imaginative scheme of social housing that is Brunswick Square today.
