Abstract

The article uses Keynes’ ideas to analyze New Keynesian economics, its assumptions
and its most important corollaries. It examines the crucial assumption of New Keynesian
economics: the stickiness of prices and wages. Concluded this analysis, these Keynesian
new-school’s results and methods are criticized. One carries out the conclusion that only
conflicts emerge in the relation between Keynes and New Keynesian economists.
