This episode traces the life of John Maynard Keynes, from his Cambridge upbringing and a brief, unlikely formal education in economics, through his Treasury work in the First World War, his protest against the Versailles settlement, and his 1936 General Theory on aggregate demand and unemployment. The hosts examine his famous line that in the long run we are all dead, the debated idea of animal spirits, and the tension between his ideals and what he could actually win at the Bretton Woods conference. They close by asking what greatness means for a thinker who had to negotiate from weakness, and why his ideas still matter in debates over recessions and government spending.
