ABSTRACT

From time to time we intend to publish in the JPKE portraits — or sketches, if you like — of some of the original Post-Keynesians, a loose term designed to cover those people who were pupils of and/or worked with and/or were strongly influenced by Keynes, and whose work continues to reflect this influence. A most appropriate person to include in the series is Lorie Tarshis. So on Friday 13 June 1980 I spent a most enjoyable day talking to Lorie at the Ontario Economic Council, 81 Wellesley Street, Toronto, where, as a youthful 69, he is Research Director.
