[URPE] heterodox macro paperback edition

[Jonathan Goldstein]

Can you please send the following announcement to the listserve.
Thanks, Jon



Dear Colleagues,

Given that textbook ordering season for the Spring semester is upon us, 
I am writing to bring your attention to the paperback release of our 
book, Heterodox Macroeconomics: Keynes, Marx and Globalization, recently 
published by Routledge as part of the Advances in Heterodox Economics 
series. The paperback release, priced at $42.95 and available January 
13, 2011, makes the material in this volume far more accessible to 
undergraduate and graduate students.


The book provides a timely, unique and current synthesis of the best 
work by top heterodox scholars addressing today's most pressing 
macroeconomic issues.  The book analyzes:

o rising inequality, global financial instability, and macroeconomic 
crisis; and,

o the perverse and pernicious neoliberal policy-making since 1980 that 
led to increased financial instability;

and provides:

o a coherent, second wave synthesis of post-Keynesian and Marxian macro 
theory; and,

o heterodox policy alternatives to neoliberal, free-market policies.

The book is divided into four sections:

o Heterodox Macrotheory and a revised Keynes-Marx synthesis;
o Accumulation, Crisis and Instability;
o The Macrodynamics of the Neoliberal Regime;
o Contemporary Heterodox Macroeconomic Policies.

The book's twenty essays include theoretical, international, historical, 
and country perspectives on financial fragility and macroeconomic 
instability.

/Heterodox Macroeconomics/ is an especially useful book for 
undergraduate or graduate courses on globalization, economic crisis, 
modern Marxian and post-Keynesian analysis and also for modern history 
of thought and macroeconomics courses that consider heterodox perspectives.

This book brings together leading world heterodox scholars to make sense 
out of these topics and to update heterodox macroeconomic theory.   Its 
papers build centrally on recent foundational heterodox macro analyses 
and authors include: Gerald Epstein, Stephen Fazzari, Martin Wolfson, 
Makato Itoh, Soo Haeng Kim, Raford Boddy, Gary Dymski, Jonathan 
Goldstein, David Kotz, Fred Moseley, Ilene Grabel, Malcolm Sawyer, 
Michele Naples, Bill Gibson and Michael Hillard.
