Abstract

On the anniversary of the publication of the General Theory, the articles recalls the main elements of Keynes' thought. The author emphasises the main differences between Keynes' policy proposals, based on the control of aggregate demand as a way to raise economic security, and Beverdige's plan for a universalistic welfare state.
