In Universal Man, noted biographer and historian
Richard Davenport-Hines revives our understanding of John
Maynard Keynes (1883-1946), the twentieth century’s most
charismatic and revolutionary economist. Keynes helped FDR
launch the New Deal, saved Britain from financial crisis
twice over the course of two World Wars, and instructed
Western nations on how to protect themselves from
revolutionary unrest, economic instability, high
unemployment, and social dissolution. Isaiah Berlin called
Keynes “the cleverest man I ever knew”—both “superior and
intellectually awe-inspiring.” Eric Hobsbawm, the twentieth
century’s preeminent historian, considered him as influential
as Lenin, Stalin, Roosevelt, Hitler, Churchill, Gandhi, and
Mao. Keynes was nothing less than the Adam Smith of his time:
his General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money,
published in 1936, became the most important economics book
of the twentieth century, as important as Smith’s Wealth
of Nations in inaugurating an economic era.
Keynes’s brilliant ideas made possible 35 years of prosperity
after the Second World War, the most sustained period of
rapid expansion in history. And now, and in the wake of the
2008 global economic collapse, he is once again shaping our
world. Every day, we are likely to hear about “Keynesian
economics” or the “Keynesian Revolution,” terms that testify
to his continuing influence on both economic theory and
government policies. Indeed, with the thorough discrediting
of his opponents—Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, Alan
Greenspan, and other supporters of the notion that capitalism
is self-regulating, and needs no government
intervention—nations across the world are turning to Keynes’s
signature innovations: above all that governments must
involve themselves in their economies to stave off financial
collapse.
Previous biographies have explored Keynes economic thought at
great length and often in the jargon of the discipline.
Universal Man is the first accessible biography of
Keynes, and reveals Keynes as much more than an economist.
Like many Englishmen of his class and era, Keynes
compartmentalized his life. Accordingly, Davenport-Hines
views Keynes through multiple windows, as a youthful prodigy,
a powerful government official, an influential public man, a
bisexual living in the shadow of Oscar Wilde’s persecution, a
devotee of the arts, and an international statesman of great
renown. Delving into Keynes’s experiences and thought,
Davenport-Hines shows us a man who was equally at ease
socialising with the Bloomsbury Group as he was persuading
heads of state to adopt his policies. Exploring the desires
and experiences that compelled Keynes to innovate,
Davenport-Hines is the first to argue that Keynesian
economics has an aesthetic basis.
In this book we come to understand not just the most
enduringly influential economist of the modern era, but one
of the most gifted and vital men of our times: a disciplined
logician with a capacity for glee who persuaded people,
seduced them, subverted old ideas, and installed new ones; a
man whose high brilliance did not give people vertigo, but
clarified and lengthened their perspectives. Engaging,
learned, and sparkling with wit and insight, Universal
Man is the perfect match for its subject.
