Abstract

On p. ix of the Preface to the printed German language edition of Keynes’s The General Theory of Employment Interest and Money, published by Duncker and Humblot in 1936, the following sentences appear: ‘This is one of the reasons which justify my calling my theory a General [emphasis in the original] Theory. Since it is based on fewer restrictive assumptions [‘weniger enge Voraussetzungen stutz’] than the orthodox theory, it is also more easily adopted to a large area of different circumstances’.1
