Manu Goswami on Keynes and Empire's End
Recorded May 4, 2017
In this talk, New York University history professor Manu Goswami argues that restoring the occluded place of empire in Keynes’s General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money at once clarifies and amplifies its significance, extending its import beyond the merely ‘economic’ and the restricted Euro-American cartography of dominant histories of economic thought.
Keynes’s General Theory was, as Goswami suggests, a key moment in the mid-twentieth century denouement of decolonization, in the conjunctural (dis)articulation of empire and capital. It provides a crucial, if also unexpected, vantage on the still unresolved question of why the nation form became, in region after region, the political-economic successor to European and Asian empires.
Manu Goswami is Associate Professor in the Department of History at NYU. Her research and teaching center on nationalism and internationalism, political economy and the history of economic thought, social theory and historical methods. Her book, Producing India: From Colonial Economy to National Space was published in 2004 by the University of Chicago. She serves on the editorial board of Public Culture.
