Karl Brunner's Contributions to the Theory of the Money Supply

Author

  • Juan Pablo Nicolini

Abstract

In this paper, I revisit some recent work on the theory of the money supply, using a theoretical framework that closely follows Karl Brunner's work. I argue that had his research proposals been followed by the profession, some of the misunderstandings related to the instability of the money demand relationship could have been avoided.
