'Fridays for Keynesianism' — Peter Bofinger


Excellent summary of the recognition of the classical fallacy by Keynes, what followed, and why neoclassical economics is proving so difficult to dislodge even though it has been discredited.

Note: This is not the only fallacy that plays a part in neoclassical assumptions. The fallacy of composition is another, as Keynes also observed.
