James Crotty (economist)
James Crotty is an American Post-Keynesian macroeconomist whose research in theory and policy attempts to integrate the complementary analytical strengths of the Marxian and Keynesian traditions. He has made contributions to the social structure of accumulation (SSA) theory; the implications of radical uncertainty for macro theory and theories of financial markets.
Education
James Crotty received his Ph.D. from Carnegie Mellon University in 1973, and after teaching at the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York for a while joined the Economics Department of the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Amherst.
