Synopsis "The Collected Writings of John Maynard Keynes 30 Volume Paperback Set: The Collected Writings of John Maynard Keynes: Volume 26, Activities 1941-1946: Bretton Woods and Reparations, Paperback "

Between the outbreak of war in 1939 and his death in April 1946, Keynes was closely involved in the management of Britain's war economy and the planning of the post-war world. This volume, the fifth of six dealing with this period, focuses on three aspects of his activities in planning the post-war world: the final stages of the discussions and negotiations that brought the International Monetary Fund and World Bank to birth at Bretton Woods and Savannah, the negotiations over commercial policy, and the discussions on reparations and the post-war treatment of Germany. On all of these subjects it contains Keynes's attempts to influence, often with success, the course of events in both Britain and America.

John Maynard Keynes (Cambridge, 1883 – Sussex, 1946) was an influential British economist whose ideas radically transformed the theory and economic policy of the 20th century. Educated at Eton and the University of Cambridge, he was a member of the Bloomsbury Group and had a distinguished career as a civil servant, academic, and advisor to the British government. His macroeconomic theory laid the foundations for what would later be known as Keynesian economics, advocating state intervention to stabilize the economic cycle.

Among his most recognized works are The Economic Consequences of the Peace (1919), A Revision of the Treaty (1922), A Treatise on Money (1930), and The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money (1936), the latter considered his magnum opus. Although he did not receive formal awards in his lifetime, his legacy is immense and his influence has endured in the economic policy of numerous countries, especially after the Great Depression and World War II.
