Macroeconomics and behavioral finance

a tale of two disciplines

Thomas Russell

pp. 153-159

In the last fifty years there have been two revolutions in macroeconomics. The first, the Keynesian revolution, gave birth to macroeconomics as a sub-discipline distinct from microeconomics. By combining broad behavioral relationships, (the consumption function, the investment function, the liquidity preference function, etc.) into a single system, Keynesian macroeconomics demonstrated the existence of output levels at which involuntary unemployment was an equilibrium state.
