Abstract

It will not have slipped the minds of those who studied the work and life of John Maynard Keynes that Clark worked with him in Cambridge and provided him with statistical data. Another interesting story is that Clark became what Millmow calls a "Vatican economist" (293). While Clark repeatedly claimed that Keynes had proved him right on this, Millmow provides evidence that Keynes's alleged approval is dubious (326-332). [Extracted from the article]
