This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tracts Relating to the Currency of the Massachusetts Bay, 1682-1720 While prosecuting the examination of authorities which preceded the publication of the two volumes entitled "Currency and Banking in the Province of the Massachusetts Bay," I turned the leaves of between forty and fifty contemporaneous pamphlets which were issued by our local press and devoted to the discussion of the topics suggested by the titles of these volumes. The greater part of these tracts were rare, even the most common of them being found only in libraries which have for years had a department specially devoted to Americana. The collections in the immediate vicinity of Boston contain nearly all of them, but if one would see "Severals relating to the Fund," he must go to the Watkinson Library at Hartford. If he would see "Some Proposals to benefit the Province," he must visit the Library of the American Antiquarian Society at Worcester. One of them, Douglass's "Discourse concerning the Currencies," has been reprinted by the American Economic Association. Another, "Money the Sinews of Trade," was reproduced by Robert Lewis Kennedy of New York. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis A Select Collection of Scarce and Valuable Tracts and Other Publications on Paper Currency and Banking (Classic Reprint) by : J. R. McCulloch

This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Select Collection of Scarce and Valuable Tracts and Other Publications on Paper Currency and Banking This collection, of the most valuable of the English tracts and publications on paper currency and banks, may be regarded as supplementary to the volume of tracts on metallic currency, printed for the Political Economy Club. It does not, however, contain any tract having especial reference to paper money, properly so-called, that is, to notes which are legal tender without being convertible at the pleasure of the holder into certain amounts of coin. The value of this variety of paper currency depends on the extent to which it may be issued compared with the demand, or rather with the business it has to perform. Whether those by whom it is issued are in good or bad credit is immaterial. It obtains currency by its issuers having power to make it legal tender; and nothing more is required to sustain its value than that it should be issued in moderate quantities. The value of the assignats issued during the French Revolution was at first nearly equal to that of metallic money; but the quantities of them thrown into circulation being rapidly and enormously increased, their value proportionally declined, till in the end they became all but worthless. And such has invariably been the case wherever inconvertible paper notes have been made legal tender. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Present Crisis, or the Currency: A Tract of the Times for Every Man Who Can Read But how didi it happen that the business world awoke to to the conviction that the currency could no 3 longer -be, trusted as a measure of value just when they did?. What was it that destroyed their confidence, and prostrated, as inr a moment, all the credit of the Banks? Here it is to be observed that if no answer could be given to this question, it would not invalidate, or weaken, one link in the prece ding chain of argument. But we shall the better under: . Stand it if we remember that, for twenty years now, since the reconstruction of the Bank system after 1837 -the cur-frency of the country has been, with short and slight tractions, constantly and rapidly expanding. Every new Bank that has gone into Operation has thrown an additional quantity into the circulating medium; until the number of Banks, and the amount of their issues, _have become enor mousfis' This has begotten and nourished that mad spiritfiof extravagance, over-trading, speculation, and stock gambling, which has so grievously corrupted the business and social life Of the people. This bloating of the currency had de preciated its value, and enhanced prices until they had reached a point where they were actually unwieldly. And this depreciation, affecting equally, of course, the value of the precious metals, has driven them out of the country, and left the Banks with enormous issues afloat, and com paratively little specie with which to redeem their bills, in case of demand. Naturally, at last, Observing this from their published exhibits, and from any other incidental causes, no matter what, they began to feel their insecurity. Small but not inconsiderable contractions followed. These necessarily imparted to the community some feeling that the currency was changing. This feeling, being one of dis trust, began to show itself in quicker returns of the bills for redemption. Consequently greater contractions had to follow. These again increased the feeling of insecurity; until the process reached a point where it could not go back, but must continue to propagate itself. Thus, at last, all confidence was overthrown; and the loss of it was im mediately justified by the almost universal suspension of the Banks, demonstrating that they were totally unable to fulfil their covenant engagements, i. E. To pay on demand. We have the result, which was as inevitable at some point of the expansion as are the results of mathematical and physical laws.

Book Synopsis Thomas Tooke and the Monetary Thought of Classical Economics by : Matthew Smith
Download or read book Thomas Tooke and the Monetary Thought of Classical Economics written by Matthew Smith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-03-07 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide a comprehensive account and reconsideration of the contribution to political economy of Thomas Tooke (1774-1858), classical economist and influential monetary theorist. Its chief purpose is to examine Tooke’s contributions to political economy with the aim of bringing to light its unified nature and its important legacy to contemporary economics. In doing so the book aims to throw new light on monetary analysis within the framework of classical economics. There remains no comprehensive account of Tooke’s contributions that is concerned with showing his lasting and ongoing influence on the development of monetary thought. The book provides an interpretation and analytical study of Tooke’s political economy from the standpoint of the classical tradition. This enables a demonstration of how his constructive contribution throws a new light on monetary thought in this tradition.

Book Synopsis The Classical Economists Revisited by : D. P. O'Brien
Download or read book The Classical Economists Revisited written by D. P. O'Brien and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Classical Economists Revisited conveys the extent, diversity, and richness of the literature of economics produced in the period extending from David Hume's Essays of 1752 to the final contributions of Fawcett and Cairnes in the 1870s. D. P. O'Brien thoroughly updates, rewrites, and expands the vastly influential work he first published in 1975, The Classical Economists. In particular, he sets out to make clear the shaping of a comprehensive vision of the working of an open economy, building on the great work of Adam Smith in Wealth of Nations, a development that was substantially affected by the contributions of David Ricardo. He shows that the Classical literature was in fact the work of a host of thinkers from a wide range of backgrounds. Covering the intellectual roots of the Classical literature and its methodological approaches, and the developed theories of value, distribution, money, trade, population, economic growth, and public finance, and examining the Classical attitudes toward a rich variety of policy issues, The Classical Economists Revisited considers not only the achievements of the Classical writers but also their legacy to the later development of economics. A seminal contribution to the field, this book will be treasured for many years to come by economists, historians of economics, instructors and their students, and anyone interested in the sweeping breadth and enduring influence of the classical economists.
