Economic Possibilities for Our Grandchildren
Author(s)Keynes, John Maynard
AbstractWhat can we reasonably expect the level of our economic life to be one hundred years hence? What are the economic possibilities for our grandchildren? In this classic essay, written in 1930, the author looks forward to the time when growth will have eliminated the problem of scarcity, and speculates about the changes in society, work, morality, and behavior that will be possible in the future world of abundance.
