General equilibrium theory is a central point of contention and influence between the neoclassical school and other schools of economic thought, and different schools have varied views on general equilibrium theory. Some, such as the Keynesian and Post-Keynesian schools, strongly reject general equilibrium theory as "misleading" and "useless".
There is a long history of interpreting crisis theory, rather as a theory of cycles than of crisis. An example in 2013 by Peter D.

This is opposed to a partial equilibrium, where price levels are taken as given and only output levels are determined within the model economy. Equilibrium: In accordance with Léon Walras's General Competitive Equilibrium Theory, the model captures the interaction between policy actions and behaviour of agents. [6]
The existence of net hoarding, or of a demand to hoard, is not admitted by the simplified liquidity preference model of the General Theory. Once he rejects the classical theory that unemployment is due to excessive wages, Keynes proposes an alternative based on the relationship between saving and investment.

The failures of macroeconomic theory at the time to explain the crisis spurred macroeconomists to re-evaluate their thinking. [197] Commentary ridiculed the mainstream and proposed a major reassessment.

[ 1 ] [ 2 ] A famous problem of economic theory, the conditions under which money, which is intrinsically worthless, can have a positive value in a ...
Along these lines, Heinrich challenges the identification of Marx's theories of crisis with the law of the tendency of the rate of profit to fall, a reading he attributes principally to Engels having edited the third volume of Capital so as to condense all the fragmentary discussion of crisis under the chapter title "Development of the Law's ...
