Grandes Economistas
Sidney Weintraub (1914-1983)
![]()
Weintraub nace en New York. Empezó a estudiar en la London School of Economics, pero la segunda guerra mundial le hace volver a su país y se gradúa finalmente en la New York University. Trabaja inicialmente en la New School for Social Research, pero en 1952 se traslada a la Universidad de Pennsylvania en la que permanecerá el resto de su carrera. Weintraub fue fundador y co-editor del Journal of Post Keynesian Economics junto con Paul Davidson. La corriente de los post-keynesianos trata de defender y revalorizar las brillantes aportaciones de Keynes que han quedado ocultas ante la deformación del "neo-keynesianismo" del que el modelo IS-LM es el más claro símbolo. Los conceptos keynesianos de la liquidez, la incertidumbre, las relaciones entre los mercados de bienes y los mercados financieros, siguen siendo aportaciones imprescindibles para comprender el funcionamiento del sistema económico actual.
