Download or read book Banking Reform and the Federal Reserve, 1863-1923 written by Robert Craig West and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-30 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering new perspectives on the early years of the Federal Reserve system, this book evaluates the banking reform movement and its results. Professor West analyzes the system's first decade in the context of the thought of the period and of what preceded the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. Neither the Act itself nor the actions of the system it created, he maintains, can be understood without knowledge of the banking reform attempts. In this clearly written account of the American central bank, the author demonstrates the relationship between the evolution of monetary ideas and the evolution of an organizational structure. His book will be of great value to students and scholars of economic history, money and banking, institutional economics, and American history.

Book Synopsis Origins of the Federal Reserve System by : James Livingston
Download or read book Origins of the Federal Reserve System written by James Livingston and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of corporate capitalism during the late 19th and early 20th centuries has long been a source of lively debate among historians. In Origins of the Federal Reserve System, James Livingston approaches this controversial topic from a fresh perspective, asking how, during this era, a "new order of corporation men" made itself the preeminent source of knowledge on all significant economic issues and thereby changed the character of public and political discourse in the United States. The book seeks to uncover the roots of the Federal Reserve System and to explain the awakening and articulation of class consciousness among America's urban elite, two phenomena that its author sees as inseparable. According to Livingston, the movement for banking and monetary reform that led to the creation of the Federal Reserve System played an important role in the general transition from entrepreneurial to corporate capitalism: it was during this struggle for reform that a group of business leaders first emerged as a new corporate social class. This interdisciplinary account of the social, cultural, and intellectual Origins of the Federal Reserve System offers both a discussion of the sources of modern public policy and a persuasive study of upper-class formation in the United States. The book will interest a wide audience of historians, economists, political scientists, sociologists, and others who wish to understand the rise of America's corporate elite, the class that has played a large-if not dominant-role in 20thcentury America.

Book Synopsis Banks and Politics During the Progressive Era by : Richard T. McCulley
Download or read book Banks and Politics During the Progressive Era written by Richard T. McCulley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-25 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the political potency of money and banking issues, historians have largely dismissed the Progressive Era political debate over banking as irrelevant and have been preoccupied with explaining the shortcomings, limitations and inadequacies of the Federal Reserve Act. The picture that has emerged is one of bankers controlling the course of financial reform with the assistance of political leaders who were either subservient, hopelessly naive or insincere in their public opposition to bankers. This book places their exertions in a larger, unfolding political context and traces in an analytical narrative the interplay of sectional and economic interests, political ideologies and partisan clashes that shaped the course of banking reform.

Book Synopsis The Great Debate on Banking Reform by : Elmus Wicker
Download or read book The Great Debate on Banking Reform written by Elmus Wicker and published by Ohio State University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Eminent historian of economics Elmus Wicker examines the events which spurred a series of banking panics beginning in 1893-94, that led to the creation of the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank twenty years later. A serious lacuna exists in the literature on the origins of the Federal Reserve System. What is absent is a fair appraisal of the role Senator Nelson Aldrich, prominent Rhode Island senator, played. Carter Glass captured the acclaim while asserting that Aldrich be granted equal billing with Glass as "fathers" of the Federal Reserve System."--BOOK JACKET.

This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the regulation of banking in the United States between 1900 and the Great Depression, Eugene Nelson White shows how Congress and the state legislatures tried to strengthen the banking system by creating new institutions, rather than by changing nineteenth-century laws that perpetuated the unit structure of the banking industry.

Book Synopsis The International Origins of the Federal Reserve System by : J. Lawrence Broz
Download or read book The International Origins of the Federal Reserve System written by J. Lawrence Broz and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 created the infrastructure for the modern American payments system. Probing the origins of this benchmark legislation, J. Lawrence Broz finds that international factors were crucial to its conception and passage. Until its passage, the United States had suffered under one of the most inefficient payment systems in the world. Serious banking panics erupted frequently, and nominal interest rates fluctuated wildly. Structural and regulatory flaws contributed not only to financial instability at home but also to the virtual absence of the dollar in world trade and payments.Key institutional features of the Federal Reserve Act addressed both these shortcomings but it was the goal of internationalizing usage of the dollar that motivated social actors to pressure Congress for the improvements. With New York bankers in the forefront, an international coalition lobbied for a system that would reduce internal problems such as recurring panics, and simultaneously allow New York to challenge London's preeminence as the global banking center and encourage bankers to make the dollar a worldwide currency of record. To those who organized the political effort to pass the Act, Broz contends, the creation of the Federal Reserve System was first and foremost a response to international opportunities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Reserve System has been widely criticised for its response (or lack of response) to the economic and financial problems of 1928-1933. This period was one of frantic speculation followed by the collapse of the stock market, the banking system and the economy at large. How did the Fed let this happen, and was it to blame? This book, first published in 1993, carries out an in-depth statistical analysis of the relevant data supporting the various theories surrounding the Fed’s behaviour at the time, and is a key work in understanding the thinking of the period.

CHAPTER II HISTORY OF BANKING REFORM MOVEMENT Deficiencies in the national banking system were perceived comparatively early in its history, but did not make themselves felt in a way so serious as to enlist active effort for their correction until about twenty-five years after the system had first become operative. Moreover, during this period of twenty-five years, the difficulties which were most seriously felt were not those that afterward caused most annoyance and led to most active effort for improvement. Probably the first inconvenience that was experienced in the management of the national circulation after the national banking system had been definitely created and the Act had been amended to meet the earlier requirements of the conditions then existing, was the prospect that the supply of Government bonds, available at prices that would enable the banks to put out circulation based thereon, would be insufficient. In 1880-83 this problem had become acute, due to the fact that the twentyyear bonds which had been issued by the Federal Government during the Civil War at 5 and 6 per cent. interest were expiring, and the question what should be done in connection with them was unsettled. This problem was disposed of by refunding the bonds for another twenty years, and thus enabling the national banks to get the securities they needed as a basis for their circulation. With the growth of the great surpluses of revenue during the decade 1880-90, a new type of problem appeared; for the purchases of bonds made by the Treasury Department, in order thus to use up the surplus, had again brought the bonds to a premium and made it questionable whether the maintenance of the circulation on a satisfactory basis providing for the issue of enough of...
