Re: [Pen-l] Post-Keynesianism at MR?



interestingly, back in the 1970s, when a survey article (by Eichner &
Kregel) about PK economics appeared the JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC
LITERATURE, one of the bibliography entries was for Baran & Sweezy's
MONOPOLY CAPITAL. However, as far as I can tell, the article never
actually cited the book.
