Sorry about this but real lazy Wikipedia as a start again: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keynesian_economics

Hugely funny video which covers the Hayek / Keynes debate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S77BiQWqES4

Paul Krugman who is currently the most forthright defender of Keynes speaks at Yale University on Keynes and the current crisis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFZz0vPX6jA

See also the recent edition of the New Statesman which provides a classic Keynesian analysis of the current situation:
