Abstract:
Sixty years after his death, the life and thought of the economist, John Maynard Keynes, continues to be a subject of the greatest interest to scholars. Yet one of the most significant areas of Keynes's thinking has been strangely overlooked — international relations, a subject that was always of central importance to him. This book explores comprehensively, for the first time, the evolution of Keynes's thinking on international relations. It shows how this is linked to the changing of his opinions on economic matters, in a way which deepens the understanding of both. Drawing upon a wide range of significant source material in American and British archives, the book shows entirely new aspects of Keynes.
