Armement et dépenses publiques, quels enjeux pour l'analyse robinsonienne ?

Abstract

Public expenditures have a crucial place within the Keynesian theory. How then not questioning J. Robinson about the consequences of arms race? Especially since the Cambridge economist has been fiercely opposed to "military Keynesianism". It is interesting to replace military expenditures in her analysis, to show its interest as well as underline its limits. Politically dangerous and economically inefficient, these expenditures can play an great role to alleviate deficiencies of capitalism by allowing investments rejected or neglected by private investors despite their key role in a long-term perspective.
