Keynes, Lasky, Hayek: How Economic Thoughts Impact the World

Keynes, Lasky, and Hayek were three famous scholars in the same historical period. They not only stirred up the storm in the era in which they lived in the first half of the 20th century, but also had a huge impact on later generations. This book takes the three of them as protagonists and uses the formation of their identities as a clue to explore how their economic thoughts were formed, what kind of prescriptions they gave for wars, economic crises and social changes, and how their economic thoughts influenced society at that time and later. Through this book, we can also see how political leaders such as Churchill, Roosevelt, and Margaret Thatcher reacted to economic ideas, and how different circles of economists influenced politics. This book is like a mirror that reflects the core issues of current economic debates and helps us gain insight into the ideological context behind economic policies in the current chaotic world. It is not only suitable for economics scholars and students, but also for any readers interested in economic reality and future trends.
