Description

Explore the evolution of monetary theory through this scholarly examination of how realistic economic systems can be constructed from real market foundations. Drawing on insights from Aristotle, scholastic economists, Adam Smith, Karl Marx, William Stanley Jevons, and Leon Walras, this volume critically analyses monetary theory across centuries. Following John R. Hicks' proposal for an evolutionary approach to monetary systems, the book investigates whether the medieval economy serves as an ideal starting point for understanding modern economic thought. This Routledge Studies in the History of Economics title bridges classical economic philosophy with contemporary monetary theory, offering readers a comprehensive exploration of how folktales and historical practices have shaped our understanding of money and exchange systems.
