Some reflections on Keynes's ‘finance motive’ for the demand for money
重新解读凯恩斯的融资动机,认为现有解释与凯恩斯货币分析框架不符,并指出流动性偏好理论应被理解为一种动态的金融中介理论。
This essay offers a fresh interpretation of Keynes's 'finance motive.' Some competing interpretations are assessed, which, it is argued, are inconsistent with the conceptual framework of Keynes's monetary analysis. The finance motive is interpreted as an intrinsically dynamic conception, which displays important aspects of Keynes's monetary thought not brought out in the current macroeconomic paradigm. The essay attempts to show that liquidity preference theory should be understood in a dynamic context as a theory of financial intermediation. (c) 1995 Academic Press Ltd.
