7th International Keynes Conference at Sophia
7th International Keynes Conference
at Sophia (IKCS)
Whither the Capitalistic World?
― Dialogue in “Keynes’s Spirits” ―
The main purpose of this conference is to discuss how the
capitalistic economy is and where it is going to be
headed, covering economic theory, economic policy and
social philosophy.
We need a new development, quite different from “New
Classical Economics and Neo Liberalism
”. Keynes is the very person who can provide us with
great insight for breaking through the state of stagnation
into which economics and economic policy as well as social
philosophy are falling.
Aware of this problem (in a word, “Keynes’s Spirits),
we are to hold this conference.
Besides the papers to be read, we are to have the
<Round-table Discussion: The Present Situation of the
World Economy and a special report on the present Chinese
social economy.
