Containing papers which were presented at the the tenth Keynes Seminar together with the discussion that followed each paper and four invited papers, this book examines Keynes' views on the role of the state in economic affairs. It also explores their relevance in developing countries and Eastern Europe, against a background of the withdrawal of the state in most of the developed countries of Western Europe. A.P. Thirlwall has also written "Growth and Development: with Special Reference to Developing Economies" (4th edition), "Inflation, Saving and Growth in Developing Economies", "Regional Growth and Unemployment in the United Kingdom" (with R. Dixon), "Financing Economic Development", "Balance-of-Payments Theory and the United Kingdom Experience" (4th edition with H.D. Gibson), "Deindustrialization" (with S. Bazen), "Economic Growth and the Balance of Payments Constraint" (with J. McCombie) and co-editor of "Keynes and the Bloomsbury Group" (with Derek Crabtree). Thirlwall is also the editor of "Keynes and Economic Development", "Keynes and International Monetary Relations", "Keynes and Laissez-Faire" and "Keynes as a Policy Adviser".
