Thanks, I will read it. Once small comment: there were big historical shifts in the aftermath of capitalism's Great Depression of the 19309s followed by perhaps the most destructive war in history and characterized by both left-wing and right-wing surges of anti-capitalism. The post 1946 reaction only tolerated the left-over Keynesianism as long as it had no political choice. But while it waited for better political conditions, it actively promoted redirecting the discourses of politics and economics especially. In politics it was all about anti-communism, anti-socialism, anti-Marxism; and in economics it was all about burying Marx and Keynes in favor of a revival of neoclassical economics. Milton Friedman offered himself as a leader for that revival. He was very well funded.
