From Hobson we get an understanding of how inequality of wealth and income makes crisis more likely and recovery more difficult. From Marx we get an explanation of why inequality of wealth and income is inherent in an unmodified capitalist system. We need to put together the three accounts in order to achieve a fuller understanding of the events through which we have recently been living. </span>Text of a speech given at the Post-Keynesian conference ‘Reclaiming the Keynesian Revolution’ in Kansas City.</p><p> </p><p><strong>JEL Codes: </strong>H12, B25, B52<br /><br /></p>}, number={264}, journal={PSL Quarterly Review}, author={Slidelsky, Robert}, year={2013}, month={Apr.} }
