	Review of Robert Skidelsky, John Maynard Keynes: Fighting for Britain 1937-1946
		The fact that Skidelsky is not an economist was not a hindrance while he was writing the first volume, Hopes Betrayed--that book was mostly about John Maynard Keynes as a developing intellectual, seeking to figure out his place in the world and how to use his talents.
		The fact that Skidelsky is not an economist was not a hindrance while he was writing the second volume, The Economist as Saviour--that book was mostly about Keynes as politician, trying to influence events by analyses based on the standard monetarist toolkit of a Cambridge economist between the wars.
		Skidelsky appears to have fallen under the influence of a strange and sinister sect of British imperial conservatives who believe that somehow the U.S. during World War II provided aid to Britain on niggardly terms, terms guaranteed to destroy Britain as a great power.

		Skidelsky is superb at summarizing the key contributions of Keynes and his General Theory was in the context of the late 1930s.
		Skidelsky argues that the key to his success was his ability to show that the General Theory was not a call for ever-increasing stimulus and inflation but instead an addition to economists' technocratic analytical toolkit.
		Skidelsky thinks that for the British "the White Plan spelled financial orthodoxy, the gold standard, and deflation" while for the Americans "the Keynes plan spelled reckless experiment and inflation..." Both of these claims are overstatements.

	Commanding Heights : Lord Robert Skidelsky \| on PBS
		LORD ROBERT SKIDELSKY: He was a genius because he had this ability to think at right angles from existing thought and therefore was able to overcome the opposition between traditional points of view between capitalism and socialism, laissez-faire and planning, and lift the discussion onto a new plain.
		LORD ROBERT SKIDELSKY: Of course one of the great underrecognized plots of the second world war was the war between Britain and America, the war for future position after Germany was defeated.
		LORD ROBERT SKIDELSKY: Well, it's very hard to know how far Keynesian ideas were important in generating the "golden age of capitalism," which was said to have lasted from about 1950 to 1970, the early 1970s.

	Review of Robert Skidelsky, John Maynard Keynes: Hopes Betrayed and The Economist as Saviour
		Skidelsky then writes of Keynes at Cambridge, his joining the secret society of the Apostles, and his eager grasping with both hands of the philosophy of the aesthete common among the students of the philosopher G.E. Moore.
		Skidelsky's narrative of the mature Keynes--Keynes in the 1920s--is far from being a one-note recounting of the brave but losing struggle against the approaching Great Depression, against political insanity, and against the Nazi Party's attempted revenge for the German defeat in World War I. Bloomsbury takes up a good chunk of the narrative.
		Robert Skidelsky deserves great honors for having devoted so much of his life to writing down the story of John Maynard Keynes, and writing it down so well.

		Skidelsky's massive biography (of which this is the first half) peels away the establishment veneer to show us a Bloomsbury intellectual, a homosexual, a conscientious objector in World War I and a latecomer to economics who initially thought that the "dismal science" was of low value.
		Skidelsky, a university professor in England, is the author of The End of the Keynesian Era.
		The last part of Robert Skidelsky's magnificent biography of J.M. Keynes is a tale about the fall of the British Empire with Keynes as one of its most clairvoyant and active go-betweens trying to avoid the disaster.

		But Skidelsky also provides accessible chapter and verse on Keynes' negotiations with the Americans over Lend-Lease in 1941-2, and over the contraction of the so-called "sterling area" of the British imperial economy at the end of the war.
		"In the world of economics and finance," Skidelsky writes, "Keynes had come to occupy the same position as Churchill in the world of politics" during WWII, even though his position as adviser to the chancellor of the exchequer was unofficial and unpaid.
		Skidelsky offers a remarkable discussion of the man (as opposed to the icon) whose influence seems to have fluctuated according to conventional (received?) wisdom with regard to fundamental economic principles.

		Robert Skidelsky’s three-volume biography of John Maynard Keynes has been acclaimed as the authoritative account of the great economist-statesman’s life.
		Here, Skidelsky has revised and abridged his magnum opus into one definitive book, which examines in its entirety the intellectual and ideological journey that led an extraordinarily gifted young man to concern himself with the practical problems of an age overshadowed by war.
		Meticulously researched and beautifully written, John Maynard Keynes offers a sympathetic account of the life and influences of a passionate visionary and an invaluable insight into the economic philosophy that still remains at the center of political and economic thought.

		Its bid for Unocal, the ninth-largest oil company in the United States, had to be withdrawn in the face of congressional opposition.
		As the only country likely to counterbalance the economic and political weight of the United States, China is being wooed by those who want insurance against American domination; in turn it plays host to such unsavory characters as Robert Mugabe, president of Zimbabwe, and Islam Karimov, the brutal president of Uzbekistan.
		The slogan of the "peaceful rise" is challenged by Chinese nationalists in the Foreign Office and military establishment and their affiliated scholars, who argue that it encourages Taiwan to bid for independence.
