  • A Neoliberal Keynes

    John F HenryARTICLEInternational Journal of…2018Cited by: 1References: 3

    The standard perspective of post-Keynesians and others is that John Maynard Keynes represents an alternative (and antidote) to the neoliberal theory and practice that has dominated the world economy since the 1970s. The position taken in this article is that Keynes actually represents one version of neoliberalisms (plural), but a version that is hostile to that promoted by the dominant form of neoliberalism represented by theorists such as Milton…

  • The Business Enterprise in the Age of Money Manager Capitalism

    Tae‐hee Jo, Tae-Hee Jo et al.ARTICLEJournal of Economic Issues2015

    Thorstein Veblen's going concern theory of the business enterprise has been widely received by heterodox economists. Since Veblen's era, the capitalist social provisioning process has evolved toward money manager capitalism in a dialectical fashion. At the heart of the transformation are changes in the behavior of the business enterprise. In this paper, we make a threefold argument. First, while the going concern theory of the business enterprise…

  • The Theory of the State: The Position of Marx and Engels

    J Henry, John F HenryARTICLEForum for Social Economics2008References: 5

    Marx and Engels developed their position on the state in the context of their attempt to understand and analyze society in general, in particular, capitalist society. Over the course of five decades of examination, their argument was refined, partly due to their historic investigations, partly due to the work of others, specifically by Lewis Henry Morgan, and partly due to political developments, in particular the Paris Commune of 1871. Essential…

  • Bad” Decisions, Poverty, and Economic Theory: The Individualist and Social Perspectives in Light of “The American Myth”

    J Henry, John F HenryARTICLEForum for Social Economics2007Cited by: 1References: 3

    Social outcomes are analyzed either by placing responsibility for those outcomes on the individual or to locate the cause in a specific social factor – discrimination. Here, I argue that individual decision-making cannot be the cause of poverty, illustrative of one outcome, and that commentary specifying a particular social factor is insufficient to address the fundamental, underlying cause of poverty. Rather, one must examine the nature of the e…

  • A Chartalist Critique of John Locke's Theory of Property, Accumulation, and Money: Or, is it Moral to Trade Your Nuts for Gold

    Stephanie Bell, Stephanie A Bell et al.ARTICLEReview of Social Economy2004References: 6

    The focus of this paper is John Locke's theoretical defense of economic inequality. It is well known that Locke identified labor as the original and just foundation of property. Succinctly, Locke's was a labor theory of property. Now, while Locke saw private property as legitimate, he proposed that the state of nature within which people interact is part of a social system that is regulated by distinct rules that limit accumulation. There is noth…

  • Hospitality versus Exchange: The Limits of Monetary Economies

    Stephanie Bell, John F Henry Stephanie Bell et al.ARTICLEReview of Social Economy2001Cited by: 8References: 5

    This paper attempts to specify theoretically the origins of money. Rather than the exchange-based view of neoclassical economists where money is seen as a transaction cost-reducing instrument (and where exchange itself is asserted to be a universal phenomenon), we argue that money is a social relationship, specifically a debt relationship, that emerges with propertied, class society. "Primitive" (pre-class) society could not generate money, as th…

  • Adam Smith and the Theory Of Value: Chapter Six Considered

    John Henry, John F HenryARTICLEHistory of Economics Review2000

    Adam Smith enjoys a rather precarious position in the development of economic theory. On the one hand, he is recognized as the “Father ” of the discipline (though not without progenitors—he's not the original Adam). At the same time, his work contains “dangerous ” elements: one interpretation places Smith squarely in the line of descent that leads to Marx. The primary line of argument, however, purges Smith of dangerous thoughts, developing a lin…

  • Property Rights, Markets and Economic Theory: Keynes versus Neoclassicism - again

    John F HenryARTICLEReview of Political Economy1999Cited by: 1References: 7

    This essay has two main objectives. Initially, I specify the relationship between neoclassical theory and the property rights regime on which that theory rests. In this portion of the argument I show that the property rights consistent with neoclassical theory are inconsistent with those of a monetary (or capitalist) economy-the economy the theory purports to explain. Further, I specify several contradictions in the theory itself when it attempts…
