ABSTRACT
Joan Robinson is the scholar who should be most credited for attempting to bring together three strands of economic thinking: (i) the Marshall-Keynes, (ii) the Marx-Ricardo-Sraffa, and (iii) the Marx-Kalecki traditions 1 under the umbrella of post-Keynesian economics. As a former Keynes student who collaborated in the making of the General Theory, as well as having been a close friend of Kalecki and Sraffa from the day each arrived in Cambridge until his passing, Joan Robinson was most qualified to pull together contributions from all three to provide a general theoretical premise from which post-Keynesian economists could build.
