Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Testing Monetarism pursues the complex question of the nature of the controversy surrounding monetarist theory and evidence, and the reasons for the persistence of this controversy. The theory of monetarism is examined in its old guise as the Quantity Theory of Money, and subsequent chapters look at the evolution of the theory to its present form in the period since the 1950's, and Desai weaves together issues of theory with those of econometric evidence. He looks in turn at major predictions of monetarism, critically examining the claims made in the literature in the light of his discussion of the methodology of testing theories and highlights flaws in the empirical data surrounding monetarism.

Download or read book The Monetarists written by George S. Tavlas and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 651 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential origin story of modern society’s most influential economic doctrine. The Chicago School of economic thought has been subject to endless generalizations—and mischaracterizations—in contemporary debate. What is often portrayed as a monolithic obsession with markets is, in fact, a nuanced set of economic theories born from decades of research and debate. The Monetarists is a deeply researched history of the monetary policies—and personalities—that codified the Chicago School of monetary thought from the 1930s through the 1960s. These policies can be characterized broadly as monetarism: the belief that prices and interest rates can be kept stable by controlling the amount of money in circulation. As economist George S. Tavlas makes clear, these ideas were more than just the legacy of Milton Friedman; they were a tradition in theory brought forth by a crucible of minds and debates throughout campus. Through unprecedented mining of archival material, The Monetarists offers the first complete history of one of the twentieth century’s most formative intellectual periods and places. It promises to elevate our understanding of this doctrine and its origins for generations to come.

Download or read book Money Wealth and Expenditure written by Dorian Owen and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1986-07-31 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book develops and applies a modelling framework that enables consumers' expenditure and portfolio behaviour to be analysed in an integrated manner. It extends and applies the Yale approach to financial model building associated with James Tobin. The basis of this approach is surveyed with particular emphasis on the empirical implementation of portfolio models in the UK, US and other countries, appropriate econometric estimation techniques and comparisons with other monetary modelling strategies. Empirical application of the model is particularly addressed to testing whether the composition of wealth holdings is important for expenditure and asset demands, whether concentration on 'money' at the expense of other assets and liabilities is acceptable, and whether the interrelationships stressed by Tobin's general equilibrium approach are statistically important. The results have important implications for the recent literature on wealth effects on consumption and the overemphasis on 'money' at the expense of other financial assets and liabilities.
Download or read book Milton Friedman Economic Debate in the United States 1932 1972 Volume 2 written by Edward Nelson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-11-06 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Second in a two-volume study of the Nobel Prize winner’s long career: “Nelson knows more about Milton Friedman’s economics than anyone else alive.” —Business Economics This study is the first to distill Nobel Prize winner Milton Friedman’s vast body of writings into an authoritative account of his research, his policy views, and his interventions in public debate. With this ambitious new work, Edward Nelson closes the gap: Milton Friedman and Economic Debate in the United States is the defining narrative on the famed economist, the first to grapple comprehensively with Friedman’s research output, economic framework, and legacy. This two-volume account provides a foundational introduction to Friedman’s role in several major economic debates that took place in the United States between 1932 and 1972. This second volume covers the years between 1960 and 1972—years that saw the publication of Friedman and Anna Schwartz’s Monetary History of the United States. The book also covers Friedman’s involvement in a number of debates in the 1960s and 1970s, on topics such as unemployment, inflation, consumer protection, and the environment. As a fellow monetary economist, Nelson writes from a unique vantage point, drawing on both his own expertise in monetary analysis and his deep familiarity with Friedman’s writings. Using extensive documentation, the book weaves together Friedman’s research contributions and his engagement in public debate, providing an unparalleled analysis of Friedman’s views on the economic developments of his day. “No previous biographer has Nelson’s deep and sophisticated understanding of monetary economics.” —Economic History
