John Maynard Keynes. Who was 'John Maynard Keynes'. John Maynard Keynes was a 19th-century British philosopher and economist who spent his working years with the East India Company and is known as the father of Keynesian economics.
Keynesian economics serves as a sort of yardstick that can define virtually all economists who came after him. Keynes was born in Cambridge and attended Kingâs College, Cambridge, where he earned his degree in mathematics in 1905. He remained there for another year to study under alfred marshall and arthur pigou, whose scholarship on the quantity theory of money led to Keynesâs Tract on Monetary Reform many years later. After leaving Cambridge, Keynes took a position with the civil service in Britain.
