Retrospectives: The Economics of Leon Hirsch Keyserling
回顾了莱昂·凯泽林的经济学思想,他作为经济顾问委员会主席,强调长期增长、财政货币政策与充分就业,认为经济增长、公平和福利相互关联。
The economics of Leon H. Keyserling influenced the Roosevelt era in terms of housing, agriculture, labor, and antitrust legislation. During the Truman era, discussed herein, Keyserling was influential as chair of the Council of Economic Advisors, stressing long-term growth, general and selective fiscal, monetary, and interest rate policies, and the view that economic growth, equity, and welfare are tied together via a full employment goal. Thus he was a liberal Keynesian and a pragmatist realizing that the keys to prosperity were consumption (wages) and investment (profits).
