Saving and Debt

  • Chapter

Abstract

When he discussed savings and consumption in the General Theory, Keynes distinguished neither between capitalists and workers nor between business and households. Notwithstanding the importance of the first of these two distinctions I shall deal in this chapter only with the second which involves problems of its own.

First published in Alain Barrère (ed.), Keynes Aujourd’hui (Paris, 1985); Money, Credit and Prices in a Keynesian Perspective (London: Macmillan, 1988).
