A Note on Chapter 29 of Keynes’s Treatise on Money

Author

  • Loizos, Konstantinos

Abstract

The question posed by Chapter 29 of the Treatise is the following: Is it possible, for fluctuations in liquid capital to counterbalance fluctuations in working capital and thus provide the means – apart from the motive – for a recovery after a slump? This note attempts to give an account of how Keynes answers to this question by building a theory of the forward markets.
