Steve Keen used to be a major presence on PEN-L and the original Spoons
Marxism list until he found his niche on Jerry Levy's OPE-L list which is
devoted to discussions of the ltv, falling rate of profit, etc. Steve was
rather adamant that the labor theory of value was unscientific, focusing
his fire on the transformation problem, as one might expect. Unlike other
economists on the left like Sweezy or Meek who shared such doubts, Keen is
not a revolutionary. His economic analysis is tied to a reformist belief
that it is disastrous to go beyond the welfare state.
