O presente artigo pretende discutir os significados do termo “geral” utilizado por John Maynard Keynes na sua Magnum opus, intitulada: “The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money”, também ...conhecida como “Teoria Geral” (TG). A diversidade dos conceitos usados na exposição, e o novo método de abordagem dos problemas da vida real no âmbito econômico, tornaram a TG uma obra complexa e polêmica, porém assaz importante. É preciso entender que o objeto de estudo de Keynes é o que ele chamou de economia monetária da produção, uma espécie de codinome para modo de produção capitalista. A principal conclusão demonstra, mediante necessária reflexão, que, apesar das dificuldades e críticas, a TG dispõe dos elementos teóricos necessários para compreender os fenômenos do desemprego, da inflação e do ciclo econômico e, inclusive, de intervenção estatal visando, justamente, minimizar os graves problemas do capitalismo: desemprego, inflação, má distribuição de renda e de desigualdade socioeconômica. Palavras-chave: teoria geral; economia monetária da produção; desemprego; intervenção estatal; desigualdade socioeconômica.
Well-connected in academia, business and government, John Maynard Keynes was one of the most influential economic theorists of the twentieth century. It appears that his theories will be just as ...important for the twenty-first. As Keynes himself explained, his ideas throughout his life were influenced by the moral philosophy he learned as an undergraduate. Nevertheless, the meaning and significance for Keynes of this early philosophy have remained largely unexplored.
Keynes and the British Humanist Tradition offers an interpretation of Keynes’s early philosophy and its implications for his later thought. It approaches that philosophy from the perspective of the nineteenth century intellectual context out of which it emerged. The book argues that roots of Keynes’s early beliefs are to be found in the traditions of the Apostles, the very famous secret society to which he and most of his teachers belonged. The principles of Keynes’s philosophy can be seen in such writers as John Stuart Mill and Henry Sidgwick, but the underlying ideas have been obscured by changing fashions in philosophy and thus require excavation and reconstruction.
This book will be of interest to students and researchers in the history of economics, in particular the thought of John Maynard Keynes, especially his ethics, politics and economics.

El dinero es un bien público y, como tal, requiere la ordenación pública del sistema monetario y de pagos a niveles nacional e internacional. Las categorías jurídicas tradicionales —como la moneda de ...curso legal (legal tender en inglés)— se están adaptando, a veces con dificultad, al espacio digital, puesto que las leyes de los bancos centrales hablan de monedas, billetes y reservas, pero no de monedas digitales, tókenes o tecnología de contabilidad distribuida (distributed ledger technology o DLT). El artículo presenta la tricotomía del dinero digital: criptomonedas, monedas estables (stablecoins) y monedas digitales de los bancos centrales (central bank digital currencies o CBDC), además de considerar la forma en que esta tricotomía reta la noción tradicional de la soberanía monetaria, lo que reaviva el debate entre la teoría estatal del dinero y la teoría social o de mercado del dinero. El artículo examina en particular cuándo, cómo y por qué la digitalización llegó a la banca central, y cómo responden distintas jurisdicciones a la hora de diseñar las CBDC. Finalmente, analiza también aspectos internacionales, al recordar cómo la idea de una moneda global se remonta al Bancor de John Maynard Keynes, y cómo sería posible crear una criptomoneda global que podría circular junto con las criptomonedas nacionales o regionales.

Since the Great Financial Crisis of 2007–09, Hyman Minsky (1919–96) has been widely recognized as one of the late twentieth century's most insightful economic theorists. Nevertheless, if Minsky had ...still been alive at the time of the Great Financial Crisis, there would have been little likelihood that his new-found reputation would have resulted in his receiving the Nobel Prize in Economics given his heterodox and socialist economic views.
Résumé L'inquiétude que suscitent partout dans le monde l'automatisation et son influence sur l'«avenir du travail» découle de certaines idées répandues sur la technologie, l'activité humaine et la ...valeur économique. Le débat n'est pas nouveau et intéressait déjà des penseurs éminents comme Marx et Keynes. Pour mieux appréhender la situation actuelle, les auteurs réexaminent la question à la lumière de l'histoire du capitalisme. En mettant l'accent sur la place du travail et sur la technologie, ils décrivent des formes cachées de création de valeur dans l'économie contemporaine et abordent certains aspects encore inédits dans le débat historique, avant de présenter plusieurs scénarios possibles pour l'avenir.

This paper examines John Maynard Keynes’s ethical theory and how it relates to his politico-economic thought. Keynes’s ethical theory represents an attack on all general rules. Since capitalism is a ...rule-based social system, Keynes’s ethical theory is incompatible with capitalism. And since socialism rejects the general rules of private property, the Keynesian ethical theory is consistent with socialism. The unexplored evidence presented here confirms Keynes advocated a consistent form of non-Marxist socialism from no later than 1907 until his death in 1946. However, Keynes’s ethical theory is flawed because it is based on his defective logical theory of probability. Consequently, Keynes’s ethical theory is not a viable ethical justification for socialism.
