ABSTRACT

From time to time we intend to publish in the Journal of Post Keynesian Economics portraits - or sketches, if you like - of some of the original postKeynesians, 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, at a youthful 69, he is Research Director.
