Paul M. Sweezy '31, former assistant professor of Economics, will make his first public appearance since leaving the University when he addresses the John Reed Society in New Lecture Hall tonight at 8 o'clock on the subject, "Marxism and Recent Trends in Economics." The lecture is subtitled "A Critique on Keynesian Economics."
A well-known and popular figure here, Sweezy taught Economics of Socialism during his stay, and published his authoritative book, "The Theory of Capitalist Development." Sweezy's appointment as associate professor did not expire until December 31, 1946, but he has not been teaching here for some time.
