Essays on Keynesian and Kaldorian Economics

Keynes’s General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money is undoubtedly regarded as the most important book on economics in the twentieth century, and this view would be shared, I think, by those who are wholly opposed to its teaching as well as by its adherents. Nearly 50 years after its appearance controversy still rages around its basic ideas and prescriptions, and I do not think that a…

What can EU law do in order to improve the effectiveness of damages for vio…

Next, using the concept of strategic management, the qualit…

This transformation has been rapid. For example, when I began my own experimental work about a dozen years ago, it was mos…

The value of public procurement transactions in EU countries is about 16 percent of their GDP, while in the United States it is around 20 percent.1 In the private sector, the value of transactions is even larger and is steadily increasing, due to the current trend towards outsourcing all non-core business activities. …
