Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Currency and Credit It will be found that pre-war institutions and con dirions are often referred to in the present tense. This is no more unreal than to speak of them' in the past, as things of the past. Even now the war is not techni cally over, and in the prevailing obscurity it is impossible to say What can or cannot be regarded as normal or actual. Chapters XV. To XIX. Are occupied with illustrative examples drawn from a variety of periods and countries. I am indebted to the editors of the Economic Journal for bringing out the greater part of Chapters XV.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Money and Credit I take pleasure in acceding to the request to write a short Foreword to this excellent little book of Mr Melrose's. After every great convulsion of prices the world stands bewildered. At once a great mass of literature springs into existence, attempting to explain what has happened. Unfortunately, many writers rush into print who have not really penetrated beneath the surface of their subject. The explana tions of these authors merely make confusion worse confounded. Wherever, therefore, a writer does not becloud his subject, but, instead, casts real light upon it, he certainly deserves the thoughtful attention of the public.

Download or read book Money and Currency in Relation to Industry Prices and the Rate of Interest Classic Reprint written by Joseph French Johnson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Money and Currency in Relation to Industry, Prices, and the Rate of Interest The theory of money and credit is developed in the first four chapters. All the remaining chapters are illustrative of the theory. In order that the illustrations may be in harmony with actual conditions, the forces governing the ebb and flow of currency and gold are described in Chapter V.' Chapters VI, VII, and VIII Show how important is the relation which money and credit, through the medium of price and the rate of interest, bear to industry and the general welfare of society. The use of gold and silver as money is considered in the next four chapters, the issues raised in the long debate over bimetallism and the free coinage of silver being reviewed in order that the principles at stake may be brought to light. Fiat money constitutes the important subject of Chapters XIII and XIV, the author's theory and conclusions being reenforced by facts from the experience of several countries. Credit money, which is not money at all, but a form of credit possessing general accept ability, is treated in Chapter XV. The need for an elastic element in the currency a need that can be satisfied only by credit money is here considered. The last two chapters deal with the monetary experience of the United States. Here, as elsewhere, principles are made more conspicuous than the facts of coinage and legislation, it being manifestly more important to know why silver dollars are valuable than to know how many of them have been coined.

This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fiscal and Currency Standards as the Future Measure of the Credit of Nations Some weeks ago I was requested to write an article about American and European banking methods and when I averred that at present I did not have the necessary time, it was sug gested that I revise and bring up to date an earlier essay on the topic, written by me about ten years ago. As a matter of curiosity, I re read that earlier contribution from the point of view of ascertaining to what extent modern improvements would have to be added in order to make it serviceable. As you may imagine, I found it as impracticable to revamp the old material as it would have been to use automobile parts of 1908 in manufacturing a modern aeroplane. While the fundamental principles had remained the same, the problems and methods had changed too drastically.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bankers and Credit What happened to our monetary system during and after the war, some of the things that a crowd of critics and reformers want to do to it now, and the reasons which seem to me to confirm the opinion of our leading bankers, that the first thing to do is to get back to the gold standard on the pre-war basis, are the subject of this book. It cannot claim to have covered all the suggestions of all the monetary reformers, who have been multiplied almost as fast as money by the efforts of our politicians. All that it can hope to do is to cull a few of the brightest flowers of the criticism that has bloomed so freely, and to put before the lay reader, in language that he can understand, some of the ambitions of those who believe that the economic Paradise is to be won by monetary manipulation.

Download or read book The Purchasing Power of Money written by Irving Fisher and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Purchasing Power of Money: Its Determination and Relation to Credit Interest and Crises The purpose of this book is to set forth the principles determining the purchasing power of money and to apply those principles to the study of historical changes in that purchasing power, including in particular the recent change in "the cost of living," which has aroused world-wide discussion. If the principles here advocated are correct, the purchasing power of money - or its reciprocal, the level of prices - depends exclusively on five definite factors: (1) the volume of money in circulation; (2) its velocity of circulation; (3) the volume of bank deposits subject to cheek; (4) its velocity; and (5) the volume of trade. Each of these five magnitudes is extremely definite, and their relation to the purchasing power of money is definitely expressed by an "equation of exchange." In my opinion, the branch of economics which treats of these five regulators of purchasing power ought to be recognized and ultimately will be recognized as an exact science, capable of precise formulation, demonstration, and statistical verification. The main contentions of this book are at bottom simply I restatement and amplification of the old "quantity theory" of money. With certain corrections in the usual statements of that theory, it may still be called fundamentally sound. What has long been needed is a candid reexamination and revision of that venerable theory rather than its repudiation.

Download or read book The Currency Problem and the Present Financial Situation written by Edwin Robert Anderson Seligman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Currency Problem and the Present Financial Situation: A Series of Addresses Delivered at Columbia University, 1907-1908 The occasion of the addresses collected in this volume was a desire to contribute to the understanding of the crisis of 1907, and to lay down some principles which might be of service in the reconstruction of our currency system. The first question, however, that will Obviously present itself, is as to whether the crisis of 1907 was primarily a financial or an industrial crisis; and it may be well, before taking up the specific problems raised by the addresses, to consider this question a little more closely. From one point of view, indeed, every economic crisis is a financial crisis. For since values are expressed in terms of money, and Since the modern business super structure is erected on the basis of credit, every economic revulsion expresses itself through the medium of a change in prices; and since the bank is the center of credit Operations, every crisis inevitably involves a revolution in the conditions Of credit. From this point of View, all crises may be declared to be financial crises. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Currency Inflation and Public Debts: An Historical Sketch The first problem is intimately connected with the growth Of public indebtedness. The utilization of pub lic credit is essentially a modern phenomenon. Public debts do not go back more than a century or two, and it is only in very recent times that they figure largely in economic life. Public credit has been utilized in ia creasing measure not only because modern business life lays continually more stress on credit, but also because under the dynamic conditions Of a rapidly augmenting national wealth the weight Of a given public debt tends gradually to diminish. Public credit is not only a natural, but within bounds a salutary, phenomenon. Public debts are in reality nothing but anticipated taxes, and if the distribution Of the holdings of the debt were exactly equal to the distribution of the weight Of taxa tion, public debts would constitute no burden on the community: for every dollar paid by the individual in taxes would be compensated by the dollar received by him in interest.
