Harrod: Writings on Economics : 7 Volume Set: A Palgrave Macmillan Archive Collection

Sir Roy Harrod was much praised by Keynes for his early theoretical work and was one of the small group of young economists who worked with Keynes in the 1930s, helping him to develop the new theories that led to the General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money. Harrod's principal contribution to economics was the development of his theory of dynamic growth, articulated in several of the volumes in this collection. Beyond growth theory, Sir Roy worked on the theory of the firm and on international monetary theory, pursuing the development of international institutions such as an International Monetary Fund and a World Bank that would pervent the kind of breakdown of international monetary relations that had occurred in the 1930s. Palgrave Macmillan is proud to bring back into print this substantial collection of Sir Roy Harrod's main book-length works in eoncomic theory and to provide a resource that will be invaluable for economists and economic historians.
