Book Synopsis The Money Mandarins by : Howard M. Wachtel
Download or read book The Money Mandarins written by Howard M. Wachtel and published by Pantheon. This book was released on 1986 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the development of the new "supranational" economy, and how it contributed to the conservative advance and the liberal retreat in economic policy during the 1980s. Howard Wachtel shows how the international economic system worked from 1946 to 1971, and why it collapsed. Each of the key actors in the global drama--banks and corporations, the IMF and the World Bank, central banks and the Federal Reserve Board--is skillfully portrayed. Wachtel provides a concise account of the often arcane and confusing world of foreign exchange rates, the value of gold, Eurodollars, and petrodollars, and the role of the dollar as the international currency. He examines the hidden meanings of the great gold wars of the 1960s and 1970s, and why Vietnam so weakened the dollar only to have OPEC's rise restore its central role. He then reveals the links, in the 1980s, between the oil crisis, Third World debt, the fragile banking system, and merger mania. With a rare gift for making complex issues intellectually accessible, Wachtel lets us understand how in the world economy a private supranationalism, energized by the technological revolution in information and communications, has overwhelmed public institutions and found its ideological home in the "free-market monetarism" lauded today. And in carefully showing how the emerging supranationalism led to the conservative revival and an attack on liberalism and the welfare state, Wachtel suggests why their convergence is fueling the risk of economic collapse, as governments are unable to restore monetary stability in an increasingly unmanageable world economy.

Book Synopsis Money, Power, and the People by : Christopher W. Shaw
Download or read book Money, Power, and the People written by Christopher W. Shaw and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-09-05 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “engaging and well-researched study [of] ordinary people who joined together to challenge financial institutions” (Choice). Banks and bankers are hardly the most beloved institutions and people in this country. With its corruptive influence on politics and stranglehold on the American economy, Wall Street is held in high regard by few outside the financial sector. But the pitchforks raised against this behemoth are largely rhetorical: We rarely see riots in the streets or public demands for an equitable and democratic banking system that result in serious national changes. Yet the situation was vastly different a century ago, as Christopher W. Shaw shows. This book upends the conventional thinking that financial policy in the early twentieth century was set primarily by the needs and demands of bankers. Shaw shows that banking and politics were directly shaped by the literal and symbolic investments of the grassroots. This engagement remade financial institutions and the national economy, through populist pressure and the establishment of federal regulatory programs and agencies like the Farm Credit System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Shaw reveals the surprising groundswell behind seemingly arcane legislation, as well as the power of the people to demand serious political repercussions for the banks that caused the Great Depression. One result of this sustained interest and pressure was legislation and regulation that brought on a long period of relative financial stability, with a reduced frequency of economic booms and busts. Ironically, this stability led to the decline of the very banking politics that brought it about. Giving voice to a broad swath of American figures, including workers, farmers, politicians, and bankers alike, Money, Power, and the People recasts our understanding of what might be possible in balancing the needs of the people with those of their financial institutions.
Book Synopsis Money as a Social Institution by : Ann E. Davis
Download or read book Money as a Social Institution written by Ann E. Davis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Money is usually understood as a valuable object, the value of which is attributed to it by its users and which other users recognize. It serves to link disparate institutions, providing a disguised whole and prime tool for the “invisible hand” of the market. This book offers an interpretation of money as a social institution. Money provides the link between the household and the firm, the worker and his product, making that very division seem natural and money as imminently practical. Money as a Social Institution begins in the medieval period and traces the evolution of money alongside consequent implications for the changing models of the corporation and the state. This is then followed with double-entry accounting as a tool of long-distance merchants and bankers, then the monitoring of the process of production by professional corporate managers. Davis provides a framework of analysis for examining money historically, beyond the operation of those particular institutions, which includes the possibility of conceptualizing and organizing the world differently. This volume is of great importance to academics and students who are interested in economic history and history of economic thought, as well as international political economics and critique of political economy.

Book Synopsis Money in Motion by : Ghislain Deleplace
Download or read book Money in Motion written by Ghislain Deleplace and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 770 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In analyzing money, contemporary economics has focused its attention on money's function as a store of value, neglecting its role as medium of circulation. When circulation is put center stage, it becomes apparent that the supply of money does indeed adapt to the needs of trade - and does so in many different ways, often ways that are difficult for a central bank to control, because they reflect the responses of banks and other financial institutions to market incentives. But money's role in circulation must be coordinated with its store of value function, and both with finance. Failure here can lead to instability. The essays in this volume by internationally renowned economists cover these issues in original and contrasting analyses, presenting the American post-Keynesian perspective, on the one hand, and the point of view of the French Circulation School, on the other.
