Abstract: Hiroyasu Uemura’s book Japanese Institutionalist Post-Keynesians Revisited: Inheritance from Marx, Keynes, and Institutionalism represents a significant contribution to the field of institutional economics and the post-Keynesian tradition, particularly within the Japanese academic context. This review will examine the key arguments and contributions of the author, exploring both the originality of his approach and the challenges and limitations his analysis presents. The book’s central thesis will be evaluated in relation to its capacity to illuminate contemporary transformations in capitalism and offer theoretical and practical solutions to the economic and social problems of the modern world.
