Abstract
This paper aims at providing a critical reconstruction of Keynes’s view on the links existing between public spending, interest rate, wages and employment, as formulated in his Treatise on Money. It will be argued that Keynes’s approach leads to a policy prescription which stresses the necessity of direct State intervention in supplying goods and services. This conclusion is derived from a circuitist interpretation of this work.
Este artículo hace una reconstrucción crítica de la visión de Keynes sobre la relación entre gasto público, tipo de interés, salarios y desempleo, tal y como se formula en su Tratado sobre el Dinero. El trabajo defiende que el enfoque de Keynes lleva a propuestas de política económica que enfatizan la necesidad de intervención estatal directa en la provisión de bienes y servicios. Esta conclusión se deriva de una interpretación circuitista de su obra.
