description The worldwide pandemic has induced an unprecedented economic crisis. The social consequences are catastrophic, putting the environmental crisis into perspective. The interweaving of these crises requires us to revise the way we conduct macroeconomic policies. As suggested by post-Keynesians, and contrary to recommendations made by economists from the new consensus, fiscal policy has to be the main tool for macroeconomic policy. Monetary policy has to support fiscal policy, while reductions in working hours have to be put in place. Such a reorganization of the economic policy is necessary to limit the negative economic consequences of the Covid-19 crisis, but also to move towards full employment, to trigger ecological transition and to reduce the vulnerability of our economies to global shocks.
