Post Keynesian Economists: A List

UPDATED

Just who exactly is a Post Keynesian economist? I will start a list below and update it as required. I have based this list partly on this interesting article and list here. I will include Modern Monetary Theorists as economists obviously related to Post Keynesians, and indeed at least one of the leading MMTers says explicitly that MMT emerged from Post Keynesianism.

It should be borne in mind that a number of the members of the “Circus” (Keynes’s friends and followers at Cambridge) and associates of the “Circus Generation” were not strictly speaking Post Keynesians, but precursors or Neoclassical Synthesis Keynesians. And no doubt there are bound to be omissions and errors.

Michal Kalecki (1899–1970) represents an important second influence on later Post Keynesianism.
