L'économie postkeynésienne veut être une alternative à la pensée économique dominante. Les théories macroéconomiques qui découlent des hypothèses plus réalistes des postkeynésiens ont des implications de politiques économiques radicalement différentes de celles qui s'inspirent des postulats néoclassiques habituels : un accroissement de la demande n'engendre pas nécessairement la hausse des prix ; la hausse du salaire minimum ou du salaire réel ne provoque pas la hausse du chômage ; cette même hausse du salaire réel n'entraîne pas fatalement la baisse du taux de profit des entreprises ; la baisse des taux d'épargne ne déclenche pas la chute de l'investissement, le ralentissement de la croissance, ou la hausse des taux d'intérêt ; la flexibilité des prix ne ramène pas nécessaire-ment l'économie vers l'équilibre optimum, etc. À l'instar de Keynes, les postkeynésiens croient que le capitalisme est un système économique efficace, à la condition qu'il soit encadré beaucoup plus strictement que ne le suggère la pensée dominante.

This book examines the causes and consequences associated with the falling wage share and rising inequality in income distribution, relating to both aggregate demand and labour productivity. It presents new empirical and econometric evidence regarding the economic causes and potential impact of changing income distribution. The volume argues that distributional shifts in favour of capital and the rise in income inequality have reduced economic growth and increased economic instability.
