Sir Roy Forbes Harrod - Work

Sir Roy Harrod published work on a wide variety of subjects and over a large number of years. Much of his work was based around analysis of growth, but he also wrote on subjects as diverse as money, exchange rates and inflation. Some of his main works include:

  • The trade cycle - an essay (1936)
  • Essay in dynamic theory (1939)
  • Towards a dynamic economics (1948)
  • The life of John Maynard Keynes (1951)
  • Policy against inflation (1968)
  • Reforming the world's money (1965)
  • Dollar-sterling collaboration (1968)
  • Money (1969)

As you can see the titles got snappier as the years went by! He also had a thing about dynamic economics (perhaps not a word you immediately associate with economics?) and one of his last works was entitled Economic Dynamics (1973). It is this work on economic dynamics that he is best remembered for and the link below gives more detail on this.
