Very US-centric but a good read none the less. I'm not convinced that most economists around the world are affected by this, and I would find it hard to believe that you would have such a dominant player in every region that would push everyone to the Keynesian side.

The Federal Reserve is not the only central bank, just one of the most influential (mostly because dollars are the world's reserve currency).
