Scenarios about 'john maynard keynes'
John Maynard Keynes was an influential British economist whose theories fundamentally changed economic policy during the 20th century, particularly his advocacy for government intervention during economic downturns. His work, especially "The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money" (1936), revolutionized macroeconomics and provided the theoretical underpinning for government fiscal policy in response to the Great Depression. In alternate history scenarios, Keynes' different economic approaches or personal influence could dramatically alter the development of capitalism, international finance, and government economic policy.
