Sažetak
According to some notable contemporary economists (e. g. M. Weitzman) the crucial issue that contemporary economics is dealing with (since 1929 Big Depression phenomenon occurred) is concept of stagflation. The notion of stagflation we might simply describe as disparity between labor offer and labor supply at the market place and the question (and status) of the price of the labor now and then, as well. From the ethical point of view, the concept of labor is connected with some higher purpose than material one: it involves explanation on the question how to live our lives as morally fully engaged subjects in the era designated by capitalistic ethos which – consequentially - undermines true value of labor. The main issue of this elaboration that will be discussed here is focused on the question of the labor ethics seen from the Keynesian perspective offered by his remarkable General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (1936). In order to do that, this elaboration will be divided into three parts. In the first part of it I will discuss about philosophy (of business) vs. economic practice. The second part of the given elaboration is focused on the question of the future of capitalism seen from the perspective of USA economic crisis in 2008. And in the final part of my insight into the question of the value of Keynesian economic teaching (towards saving labor) will be dedicate to the reception of Keynesian epistemological impulse in the contemporary economics and its practice.
