Description

Explore the complex history and impact of the Federal Reserve System with this deep study from Routledge. Since 1913, the Fed has served as Congress's agent for money control, but its legacy remains a subject of intense debate due to significant economic errors. This book examines how the Fed played a role in the Great Depression of the 1930s, the inflation of the 1970s, and the massive financial bailouts during the recent Great Recession. By analyzing the causes of these monetary failures, the text provides valuable lessons for creating an improved monetary authority. Readers will gain a better understanding of central banking through an examination of historical performance and the evolution of these institutions. This work is an essential resource for those studying economic history and looking to understand the alternatives to current central banking models in a democratic society.
