Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Political Economy of Great Britain, the United States, and France, in the Use of Money: A New Science of Production and Exchange I dedicate to you this book, which for good reasons, as I believe, I have entitled The Political Economy of Great Britain, the United States, and France, in the use of Money. A new Science of Production and Exchange. My theory of money, and consequently of deposits, is, I believe, entirely new, and therefore so entirely opposed to all current ideas and the language which embodies them, that to get a fair hearing at once may perhaps be difficult.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE. The following dialogue was intended to form part of a work entitled The Political Economy of Great Britain, the United States, and France, in the Use of Money: A New Science of Production and Exchange. As it would swell the book to too great a size for convenience, it is published separately. To some minds this form of arguing economical and monetary questions may be more agreeable than a didactic and formal one; and besides this, a comparison with prevailing opinions can be carried along at the same time. New ideas are thus presented in the most forcible manner possible, and those who offer them have some opportunity of being heard, by being found in company with those who can argue in favor of the old ideas. The dialogue introduces a skilled workman who is in search of work, who thinks the national banks ought to be immediately wound up because they are making money scarce, and their notes replaced by government issues. Absurd as this scheme really is, and as it certainly appears to most men who have any knowledge of practical affairs, some business men, thousands of laborers, skilled and unskilled, and some men who are well known as writers upon economical questions, support it. The minds of ignorant, and, in many instances, vicious, as well as ignorant men, are being filled with false ideas by traveling lecturers and speakers, in some parts of the United States, and there is no organized effort to counteract it. The spirit of destructiveness and Communism is attracted very naturally by such arguments, and the result may be the prostration of industry and commerce for years, by the indefinite postponement of a return to convertibility of bank and government debt now used as money. The dialogue introduces a writer who favors a government currency convertible into funded debt, the latter being reconvertible into currency at the pleasure of the holder. How the government is to loan this currency without turning banker, this writer and his brethren are unable to say, because they have not thought about that. The dialogue introduces also a writer of the prevailing school of economists, who thinks bank credits are likely to liberate gold from banking reserves, until finally, as " clearings " are extended from time to time, the gold required for reserve becomes a mere trifle, and that metal as well as silver is largely exported and sold, for use in barbarous or half-civilized countries. The same writer insists that there cannot be such a thing as overproduction, and that a banking, commercial, and industrial crisis is merely a matter of " over-trading " and " speculation." These economists argue their own case together when they agree, and when they do not, each for himself, in opposition to a banker who has adopted the ideas maintained in the book above referred to. This banker insists that all money is substantially one and the same thing, - a process for the ex- change and distribution of the products of labor; that gold and silver are the most perfect form and kind of money, and that for all ratios of valuation and all equations of exchange between buyers and sellers, in order to have the true and real benefit which gold and silver are able to confer, a definite portion on short averages, of units of gold or silver, ought to form a part of the total number of units of money (whether units of bank or government debt constitute the remainder) in every ratio and equation. This result is obtained by a metallic reserve, varying in short periods only, from a definite ratio to bank-loans. ....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays collected here reflect the author's shift in interests from foreign exchange to international trade, economic growth, and economic history, especially financial history. Charles P. Kindleberger's rich and distinguised career has spanned nearly six decades. The essays collected here reflect the author's shift in interests from foreign exchange to international trade, economic growth, and economic history, especially financial history. They also contain dollops of sociology and political science. Kindleberger views himself as a historical economist who tests economic propositions against the historical record in more than one setting. The collection contains many of the jewels of Kindleberger's work. Most of the papers are strong on comparison (within Western Europe and between Europe and the United States), on economic or financial history, and on social science beyond the confines of economics.

Book excerpt: "The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic marks the most significant, singular global disruption since World War II, with health, economic, political, and security implications that will ripple for years to come." -Global Trends 2040 (2021) Global Trends 2040-A More Contested World (2021), released by the US National Intelligence Council, is the latest report in its series of reports starting in 1997 about megatrends and the world's future. This report, strongly influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic, paints a bleak picture of the future and describes a contested, fragmented and turbulent world. It specifically discusses the four main trends that will shape tomorrow's world: - Demographics-by 2040, 1.4 billion people will be added mostly in Africa and South Asia. - Economics-increased government debt and concentrated economic power will escalate problems for the poor and middleclass. - Climate-a hotter world will increase water, food, and health insecurity. - Technology-the emergence of new technologies could both solve and cause problems for human life. Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.

Download or read book Principles of Economics written by Frank W. Taussig and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economics is more than simply the cost of a gallon of milk. Economics is also the science of society, the basis upon which a civilization functions at its most basic level. Productivity, commerce, and value all are essential elements that define and affect a community deeply. Eminent economist Frank W. Taussig brings the complex and sometimes intimidating subject to light in Principles of Economics (first published in 1911) by writing for the specialist as well as those with a simple educated curiosity about economics and its relevance to every member of a community. In Volume I, he focuses on labor, production, banking, and trade. (Volume II covers the distribution of wealth, wages, problems in economics, and taxes.) By sacrificing no scholarship while ensuring the subjects are accessible, Taussig presents an invaluable treatise on the science of society. American economist FRANK WILLIAM TAUSSIG (1859-1940) was professor of political economy at Harvard University, longtime editor of the Quarterly Journal of Economics, and an advisor to U.S. president Woodrow Wilson during World War II. He is also the author of Elements of Political Economy (1884), The Tariff History of the United States (1888), and International Trade (1927).
Download or read book The Economics of World War I written by Stephen Broadberry and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-09-29 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique volume offers a definitive new history of European economies at war from 1914 to 1918. It studies how European economies mobilised for war, how existing economic institutions stood up under the strain, how economic development influenced outcomes and how wartime experience influenced post-war economic growth. Leading international experts provide the first systematic comparison of economies at war between 1914 and 1918 based on the best available data for Britain, Germany, France, Russia, the USA, Italy, Turkey, Austria-Hungary and the Netherlands. The editors' overview draws some stark lessons about the role of economic development, the importance of markets and the damage done by nationalism and protectionism. A companion volume to the acclaimed The Economics of World War II, this is a major contribution to our understanding of total war.
Download or read book The Making of National Money written by Eric Helleiner and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-05 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why should each country have its own exclusive currency? Eric Helleiner offers a fascinating and unique perspective on this question in his accessible history of the origins of national money. Our contemporary understandings of national currency are, Helleiner shows, surprisingly recent. Based on standardized technologies of production and extraction, territorially exclusive national currencies emerged for the first time only during the nineteenth century. This major change involved a narrow definition of legal tender and the exclusion of tokens of value issued outside the national territory. "Territorial currencies" rapidly became bound up with the rise of national markets, and money reflected basic questions of national identity and self-presentation: In what way should money be managed to serve national goals? Whose pictures should go on the banknotes? Helleiner draws out the potent implications of this largely unknown history for today's context. Territorial currencies face challenges from many monetary innovations—the creation of the euro, dollarization, the spread of local currencies, and the prospect of privately issued electronic currencies. While these challenges are dramatic, the author argues that their significance should not be overstated. Even in their short historical life, territorial currencies have never been as dominant as conventional wisdom suggests. The future of this kind of currency, Helleiner contends, depends on political struggles across the globe, struggles that echo those at the birth of national money.
Download or read book Sovereign of the Market written by Jeffrey Sklansky and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What should serve as money, who should control its creation and circulation, and according to what rules? For more than two hundred years, the “money question” shaped American social thought, becoming a central subject of political debate and class conflict. Sovereign of the Market reveals how and why this happened. Jeffrey Sklansky’s wide-ranging study comprises three chronological parts devoted to major episodes in the career of the money question. First, the fight over the innovation of paper money in colonial New England. Second, the battle over the development of commercial banking in the new United States. And third, the struggle over the national banking system and the international gold standard in the late nineteenth century. Each section explores a broader problem of power that framed each conflict in successive phases of capitalist development: circulation, representation, and association. The three parts also encompass intellectual biographies of opposing reformers for each period, shedding new light on the connections between economic thought and other aspects of early American culture. The result is a fascinating, insightful, and deeply considered contribution to the history of capitalism.
