The Intellectual Revolutionary Who Saved Capitalism
John Maynard Keynes was far more than an economist-he was a revolutionary thinker who fundamentally reshaped how we understand economics and government's role in managing it. When the Great Depression threatened to collapse capitalism entirely, Keynes provided the intellectual framework that allowed governments to intervene and stabilize failing economies. His radical idea-that governments should spend money they don't have during economic downturns-challenged conventional wisdom but ultimately proved so effective that it became standard practice worldwide. Beyond economics, Keynes lived multiple remarkable lives: as a member of the influential Bloomsbury Group alongside Virginia Woolf, as an art collector whose acquisitions now hang in Britain's National Gallery, and as an investment genius who increased King's College Cambridge's endowment 13-fold. Born in 1883 to an academic family in Cambridge, Keynes showed remarkable intellectual prowess from childhood. At Eton and later King's College, Cambridge, he excelled in mathematics, classics, and history. His early career included work at the India Office while writing a dissertation on probability theory. World War I transformed Keynes's trajectory. Joining the Treasury in 1915, he quickly rose to head external finance, demonstrating exceptional administrative talent. After attending the Paris Peace Conference as Treasury representative in 1919, Keynes resigned in protest when his efforts to secure moderate German reparations failed. His subsequent book, Economic Consequences of the Peace, became an international bestseller that made him world-famous.
