The sentence suggests that Keynes disagreed with the classical view, so he drew economists away from it. The classical view believed in the self-regulating market economy, but Keynes believed that the government needed to intervene to avoid excessive unemployment. Therefore, the correct choice is away from, not toward. As for the second part of the sentence, it further supports Keynes' disagreement with the classical view by suggesting that he thought the market economy cannot regulate itself to avoid long periods of excessive unemployment. Therefore, the correct choice is can not, not can.
