The crisis seemed to expose the disaster of small-state free-market liberalization and deregulation & to rescue us. But from what, & the end of capitalism or the end of the world? For Keynesianists, the answer is both: & not to save capitalism but to save civilization from itself. It is political economy, they promise, for a world & of uncertainty, which will not take care of itself. Poverty is ineradicable, markets fail, and revolutions lead to tyranny & less because the present is worth saving but because the future seems out of control ...
