Apparently, Andrew Trigg has written a book Marxian Reproduction Schema: Money and Aggregate Demand in a Capitalist Economy (Routledge, 2006) on the topics of my post. He relates Marx's schemes for simple and expanded reproduction to Keynes' theory of effective demand, Kalecki's idea that capitalists "get what they spend", input-output analysis, and post-war growth models. At least a chapter discusses money and finance in this approach, including circuitist models. In my exposition, I put aside the labor theory of value. Trigg, on the other hand, discusses the transformation problem and whether or not a tendency exists for the rate of profit to decline.

I don't know if I'll purchase this book. Mike Beggs should be interested in it.
