1.1 The Great Recession and New Directions for Economic Thought

I, God’s own image! Ah, how close it shone,

The mirror of eternal verity!

I fed upon its light and clarity

Within myself, all mortal limits gone,

And with presumption too extreme

Of free, superangelic strenght, divine

Creative life, thought even now to stream

Through Nature’s veins-what sudden shame was mine!

A voice of thunder dashed me from that dream

(From Faust)

Abstract: The common belief in the era before the Great Depression was that the market mechanism functioned almost perfectly. After the crisis, however, many economists took sides with John Maynard Keynes who defended active government intervention to prevent depressions. But, this also changed in the mids of 1970s. Neoliberalism started to gain ground in the economic and political area. In the economic area Friedman’s doctrine known as Monetarism became popular. Later, Friedman’s monetarism was taken a step further with the “Efficient Market Theory”. Efficient Market Theory held that the market mechanism was the best alternative concerning financial transactions to take place. However, Great Recession reminded of interventionist policies to economists again. In this context, Efficient Market Theory has been criticized by some of the schools of thought in economics such as post-Keynesian and Institutionalist economists. The aim of this study is to analyze rising schools of thought inside economics after the effect of Great Recession and new challenges awaiting economic thought itself.

1 Introduction

There were enormous changes in institutional structures and international relations in the post WWII period. Various institutions such as the United Nations and the World Bank were established with the Bretton Woods agreements. These ←17 | 18→institutions aimed to help stabilize international relations. In addition to these, free trade of goods was encouraged under a system of fixed exchange rates and governments focused on maintaining full employment and increasing the welfare of their citizens via economic growth. However, by the end of the 1960s, signs of crisis in the shape of unemployment and inflation began to appear. These were interpreted as if “Keynesian policies were no longer working” and neoliberalism began its ascendance after that (Harvey, 2005:9–12).
