The Critics of Keynesian Economics

Henry Hazlitt, to confront the rise of Keynesianism in his day, put together this intellectual arsenal. In the Critics of Keynesian Economics, the most brilliant economists of the time show — in great detail and with great rigor — what is wrong with Keynes's economic system. With excerpts from books and articles published between the 1930s and the 1950s, the Critics of Keynesian Economics remains the most powerful anti-Keynesian collection ever assembled.
