Abstract:
In the present paper as a special tribune on Klein's various thoughts and contribution to economics we will abstain from a value judgment of his character, feelings and social behaviour, and will concentrate primarily on his scientific achievements. These will be analysed with respect to the following issues: the development of the Keynesian macroeconomic model; the advancement of special econometric projects and techniques; the specific suggestions toward economic policy; and the methodology and history of economics. The paper will conclude with an evaluation of Klein's place in the future history of economics.
