I chose literally the longest period FRED had available. Never heard of Keen until you brought him up, but I'm not really prepared to study one random heterodox economist to the exclusion of others. Especially one that seems unable to publish in peer reviewed journals.
- carsongross 10y agoI'm sorry: I shouldn't have said you were cherry picking in that case. You were misinformed by the limitations of the datasource you were looking at. Given the performance of academic economics over the last fifty years and the scandals in peer-reviewed academic journals, studying hetrodox economists is well worth your while if you are interested in truth rather than tenure. But I can save you the trouble, having looked into many of them: Keen is the one to read. https://www.amazon.com/Debunking-Economics-Revised-Expanded-Dethroned/dp/1848139926 https://www.amazon.com/Debunking-Economics-Revised-Expanded-... He's genius-tier, maybe our era's Keynes.
