Sidney Weintraub (1914-1983)


Weintraub se naste in New York. Incepe sa studieze la London School of Economics, dar al doilea razboi mondial il face sa se intoarca in tara sa, licentiindu-se in final la Universitatea din New York. La inceput lucreaza la New School for Social Research, dar in 1952 se muta la Universitatea din Pennsylvania unde ramane tot restul carierei sale.

Weintraub a fost fondatorul si co-editorul Journal of Post Keynesian Economics impreuna cu Paul Davidson. Curentul post-keynesistilor incearca sa apere si revalorifice stralucitele aporturi ale lui Keynes ce au ramas ascunse in fata deformarii neokeynesismului fata de care modelul IS-LM este cel mai clar simbol. Conceptele keynesiste ale lichiditatii, incertitudinii, relatiile dintre pietele de bunuri si pietele financiare continua sa fie aporturi indispensabile pentru intelegerea functionarii sistemului economic actual.

Atentie! A nu se confunda cu Sidney Weintraub, alt prestigios economist, profesor de-a lungul a multor ani al Universitatii din Texas, director al Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS),  specializat in comertul international, dezvoltarea economica si economiile latinoamericane.
