Preface
THE
gestation period of this two-volume Handbook on Post-Keynesian Economics is
approaching five years. G. C. H. was asked by Michael Szenberg and Lall Ramrattan, the
consulting editors of this series of handbooks with Oxford University Press, in the second half
of 2007 to be a general editor of the volumes on post-Keynesian economics. He subsequently
asked P. K., who was already commissioned to contribute chapters, to join him as joint editor in
the first half of 2010. It was soon decided that two volumes would be needed as nominated
contributors responded by saying yes. Inevitably, with such a wide-ranging project, some of
those asked either declined immediately for good reasons or, also for good reasons,
subsequently had to withdraw. Others gallantly came in, often well into the gestation period, to
fill the gaps created. To all our contributors we offer a heartfelt thank-you.
The contributions themselves, though all are characteristic of their respective authors’
distinctive styles, are ideal for a handbook: they are comprehensive and clearly, excitingly,
and engagingly written, and they point the way forward to future developments. While there
were times when the thought “herding cats” did cross our minds, overwhelmingly it has been a
rewarding and pleasant task cooperating with our contributors, who are either old and trusted
dear friends or welcome new ones.
We are much indebted for outstanding expert help with emails and typing (for the computer
illiterate G. C. H.) to Janet Nurse, Jane Starnes, Grace Setiawan, and Viet Ha Ngyuen.
More than ever, G. C. H. is indebted to Joan Harcourt for her love, support, and understanding
about what he has promised to be the last large project he will ever undertake.
P. K., while not prepared to make a similar promise, is, as ever, indebted to Teresa Kriesler for
her love and support during this project, without which it would not have been much fun.
G. C. H. and P. K.
