Published on 2018-01-29 by Forgotten Books

Excerpt from International Bimetallism and the Gresham Law: With Two Letters on Silver and Mr. Goshen's Currency Proposals A French silver franc contains 15 times more weight than the French gold franc. The United States silver dollar contains sixteen times as much silver as the United States dollar contains gold. There are three courses Open with reference to the world's two monetary intermediaries, and measures of value, gold and silver: (1) TO abolish them (ii.) TO let each metal find its value in proportion to the contents Of its value-giving factors; (iii) to get a temporary universal enforcement, by legislative enact ments, that both gold and silver shall be received in unlimited quantities by all mints and be made unlimited legal tender at fixed relation Of weight between the two metals. Bimetallism is unnatural, unscientific, and unworkable if the following propositions are true (1) that gold and silver are different substances; (2) that no two different substances can be exchanged for any length of time upon parallel lines Of quantities or values, neither can they be produced for any length Of time upon parallel lines Of cost.

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...
