The lecture is subtitled "A Critique on Keynesian Economics."

A well-known and popular figure here, Sweezy taught Economics of Socialism during his stay, and published his authoritative book, "The Theory of Capitalist Development." Sweezy's appointment as associate professor did not expire until December 31, 1946, but he has not been teaching here for some time.
