This article analyses the Post Keynesian movement in economics in order to establish its defining characteristics. The methodology used to accomplish this objective is a combination of philosophic and linguistic conceptions commonly referred as meaning finitism. Given the meaning finitism conception of how to define a linguistic expression, we use a computational and scientometric technique named Co-word analysis to obtain a definition of Post Keynesian economics. Also, we present a brief account of the history of the Post Keynesian movement since its beginning in 1936 until the present time.
