The theory of money supply: a case study

Author

Listed:
  • Taylor, Leon

Abstract

The theory of money supply is less developed than that of money demand, largely because 19th-century economists believed that money was unimportant and because they viewed the central bank as either an appendage to the economy or as a welfare-maximizing black box. The paper reviews each of these beliefs in turn.
