Many people thought that silver-prices would rise considerably, and that gold-prices would remain stationary. As a matter of fact, silver-prices rose very little, and gold-prices fell a great deal. Had there been a decrease of silver in the years succeeding 1873, prices in silver countries would yet probably have remained fairly stable, and helped to keep up gold-prices indirectly through higher gold-prices of silver; but the output of silver considerably increased in those years, and the output of gold materially fell off. No doubt, the early Seventies were years of great prosperity, and more token-coins were required in the West and more rupees absorbed into the Indian currency through expansion of trade;2 but had the French ratio remained intact, we might have seen a rise in both gold-and silver-prices, due to a still larger increase in the production of silver, owing to its usual gold-value. Next, we must take into account the fact that the supply of silver coming to the markets of goldstandard countries had now become a mere commodity instead of being money, or potential money. Much of this silver was diverted from the money side of the scales to the commodity side, thus doubly helping the appreciation of gold. Nobody can tell how much silver would have been produced if the French ratio had remained intact. But it is surely quite evident that more would have been produced had the gold-value of silver not fallen. The fall in the gold-value of silver perhaps acted sometimes as a stimulus to make up in quantity what was lost in price; but such an influence is in its nature temporary. Under the influence of low gold-prices...

Best Seller Everything for Everyone

Everything for Everyone High quality books Everything for Everyone By:Nathan Schneider Published on 2018-09-11 by Hachette UK The origins of the next radical economy is rooted in a tradition that has empowered people for centuries and is now making a comeback. A new feudalism is on the rise. While monopolistic corporations feed their spoils to the rich, more and more of us are expected to live gig to gig. But, as Nathan Schneider shows, an alternative to the robber-baron economy is hiding in plain sight; we just need to know where to look. Cooperatives are jointly owned, democratically controlled enterprises that advance the economic, social, and cultural interests of their members. They often emerge during moments of crisis not unlike our own, putting people in charge of the workplaces, credit unions, grocery stores, healthcare, and utilities they depend on. Everything for Everyone chronicles this revolution--from taxi cooperatives keeping Uber at bay, to an outspoken mayor transformi...

Best Seller The Gold Standard at the Turn of the Twentieth Century

The Gold Standard at the Turn of the Twentieth Century High quality books The Gold Standard at the Turn of the Twentieth Century By:Steven Bryan Published on 2010-08-31 by Columbia University Press By the end of the nineteenth century, the world was ready to adopt the gold standard out of concerns of national power, prestige, and anti-English competition. Yet although the gold standard allowed countries to enact a virtual single world currency, the years before World War I were not a time of unfettered liberal economics and one-world, one-market harmony. Outside of Europe, the gold standard became a tool for nationalists and protectionists primarily interested in growing domestic industry and imperial expansion. This overlooked trend, provocatively reassessed in Steven Bryan's well-documented history, contradicts our conception of the gold standard as a British-based system infused with English ideas, interests, and institutions. In countries like Japan and Argentina, where nationa...
