The objective is to make explicit, for the Keynesian multiplier, what from a Marxian perspective should be made explicit in any discourse about the capitalist economy, namely the role of the social relations of production. Since within given historical periods social relations are expressed in institutional forms, my analysis also gives some general insights about the basic institutional requirements assumed within the general Keynesian framework, requirements without which the Keynesian multiplier could not be operational. Finally, the paper also briefly outlines some important policy implications by comparing the main tenets of a Keynesian, neoliberal, and radical agenda for employment creation. - Reproduced aKeynes, John Maynard aReview of Radical Political Economics a44493 c44493d44493 00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 32, Issue no: 1pAR44903r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
