摘要:At the beginning of the 1930s Nicholas Kaldor (1908-1986) was a third-year undergraduate student at the London School of Economics. By the end of the decade he was an established economic theorist with an international reputation and a string of well-received publications to his name. In this paper I focus on Kaldor’s four most important articles from this period: his 1934 paper on the nature of equilibrium theorising; two pieces from 1939, on the compensation principle in welfare economics and on money, finance and the consequences of speculative behaviour; and the 1940 paper setting out his Keynesian model of the trade cycle. All four articles, I argue, are of considerable continuing interest.
