About this title

Synopsis

E. C. Harwood is a relatively unknown figure who exchanged views with J. M. Keynes through personal correspondence and the news media during the early part of 1934. Harwood did some then-impressive empirical work; had some original, interesting ideas; compiled a forecastingrecord superior to those of his better-known contemporaries; had a specific epistemological base; and anticipated modern macroeconomic concepts, including the natural rate of unemployment (the vertical long-run Phillips curve) and imperfect information as a source of business cycles.
