Bill Mitchell to launch ‘Macroeconomics’ textbook in London
1st March 2019 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
FreeGIMMS is delighted to be co-hosting with Macmillian International Higher Education an evening with the internationally respected author Bill Mitchell to launch the publication of ‘Macroeconomics’.
This groundbreaking new core textbook will allow the reader to take a more critical approach to the prevalent assumptions around the subject of macroeconomics, by comparing and contrasting heterodox and orthodox approaches to theory and policy. The first such textbook to develop a heterodox model from the ground up, it is based on the principles of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) as derived from the theories of Keynes, Kalecki, Veblen, Marx, and Minsky, amongst others. Placing a focus on the realities of how money and banks operate, and on applied theories of financial instability, this text gives an unrivalled real-world insight into how the economy actually works.
Please join us in celebrating the launch of this text and take the opportunity to hear Bill’s own insights as to what the book sets out to achieve!
