We develop a Keynesian cross analysis with a dynamic optimization setting that explains long-run stagnation caused by … aggregate demand deficiency. We show that an increase in government purchases boosts GDP through a multiplier process, but the … through moderation of deflation. Thus, countries that have lapsed into long-run stagnation should expand government spending …

We propose a microeconomic foundation of the multiplier effect and that of the consumption function using a dynamic … demand through a multiplier-like process but that the implication is quite different. It works through not an increase in …

Consumption theory has always been a neglected field in Post Keynesian economics, whereas it is at the center of New Keynesian economics. This paper investigates similarities and differences between the two approaches. I will show that the newer mainstream models indeed give results that are...
