Прочитайте и переведите текст со словарём. John Maynard Keynes John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) is an English economist, whose theory of employment and money (it was published in 1936) proposed the prevention of financial crises and unemployment by adjusting demand through government control of credit and currency. He was responsible for that part of economics now known as macroeconomics. John Maynard Keynes saw the cause of a depression as reduced aggregate demand. He suggested that governments stimulate consumption by putting money into consumers’ pockets through tax cuts or increase governments’ own expenditure to add to aggregate demand.
