| | Monetarism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Many monetarists back, or at least are sympathetic to, a return to some form of gold standard as a way of preventing misallocation of capital and preventing fiat money from being inflated, since their view is that government action is at the root of inflation. |  | | Monetarists argue that there was no inflationary investment boom in the 1920s, in contrast to both Keynesians and to economists of the Austrian School, who argue that there was significant asset inflation and unsustainable GNP growth during the 1920s. |  | | Though monetarism is commonly associated with conservative economics and economists, not all conservatives are monetarists, and not all monetarists are conservatives. |

| | Monetarism, by Allan H. Meltzer: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty |
 | | A second monetarist proposition is that when inflation is expected to be high, interest rates on the open market are high and the foreign-exchange value of a currency falls relative to more stable currencies. |  | | Not all of the British reforms were monetarist prescriptions, but the shift toward rules or medium-term strategies and the reduction in money growth and inflation were key parts of the policy. |  | | Further, using measures of the money stock and estimates of the demand for money to predict income or spending proved to be inaccurate and misleading in 1981 and 1982. |

| | Margaret Thatcher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Interestingly, her early tax policy reforms were based on the monetarist theories of Friedman rather than the supply-side economics of Arthur Laffer and Jude Wanniski, which the government of Ronald Reagan espoused. |  | | She is an elder stateswoman of the Conservative Party and the figurehead of a political philosophy that became known as Thatcherism, which involves reduced public spending, lower direct taxation, de-regulation, a monetarist policy, and a programme of privatisation of government-owned industries. |  | | These moves hit businesses, especially in the manufacturing sector, and unemployment quickly passed two million. |

 | | The chief difference with monetarists is that tax and spending policies would be of little moment if the Federal Reserve would get the aggregate amount of money in circulation right. |  | | For the purpose of developing monetarism, Friedman assumed its velocity would remain as reliably constant as it was while the U.S. was fixing the dollar to gold in maintenance of the monetary standard. |  | | Disputes arose over the correct definition of money, and various types of monetary aggregates were advanced -- M1, M2, M3, etc. -- depending upon the mixture of cash, checking accounts, money-market accounts, bank reserves, etc. The turbulence in the financial markets increased and the price of gold doubled again, to $240 or so, by 1979. |

| | Venezuelan Inflation: The Monetarist Prescription |
 | | Since Venezuela's inflation is of the cost-push type due to the devaluation of the currency, the applicability of the monetarist prescription is, at best, doubtful. |  | | If the central bank were to sell government securities in an attempt to reduce the money supply interest rates would rise attracting dollars which would be converted into bolivars and the money supply would increase to its previous value. |  | | The fact that money supply, and therefore interest rates, cannot be affected under a fixed exchange rate system has not deterred the central bank from attempting to do so. |

| | Encyclopedia article on Supply-side economics [EncycloZine] |
 | | In standard monetarist and Keynesian theory, however, there will be a point where increases in asset prices will produce no new supply, that is where investment demand will out run potential investment supply, and produce instead, asset inflation, or in common terms a bubble. |  | | The important difference is that to a monetarist the quantity of money, specifically represented by the money supply is the crucial determining variable for the relationship between the supply and demand for money, while to a Keynesian adequate demand to support the available money supply is important. |  | | According to the increases in money supply during the 1990s, the real rate of inflation must be higher than is currently stated. |

| | monetarism |
 | | Monetarism's linking of economic growth with rates of increase of the money supply was belied by the actual performance of the economy of the United States during the 1980s, however. |  | | The proliferation of new and hybrid types of bank deposits obscured the types of savings that had traditionally been used by economists to calculate the money supply, and it also appeared that declining inflation and declining interest rates could further distort the money supply's predicted impact on economic growth. |  | | In short, a change in the money supply directly affects and determines production, employment, and price levels. |

| | Monetarist Keynesians |
 | | Post-World War II monetarists have shared the central belief of John Maynard Keynes that the market economy can successfully operate only if the government engages in powerful but limited and strategic interventions to maintain the balance of aggregate demand. |  | | Any sound approach to stabilization policy must recognize the limits of stabilization policythe long lags and low multipliers associated with fiscal policy; the long and variable lags and uncertain magnitude of the effects of monetary policy. |  | | And a large chunk of the way that New Keynesians think about aggregate supply saw its development in Friedmans discussions in Friedman (1970) and Friedman (1971a). |

| | Monetarist Economic Policy |
 | | This, Monetarists felt, would at least increase the transparency and accountability of the Federal Reserve. |  | | As can be expected, at the heart of Monetarist economic policy recommendations is the use of monetary policy, by which we mean the conduct of open market operations, discount window restrictions, etc. by the Central Bank in order to influence output and prices. |  | | In contrast, early Keynesians have tended to stress the role of fiscal policy in stabilizing the macroeconomy - a position reinforced by the famous 1959 Radcliffe Committee report on British monetary reform, which engendered an intra-Keynesian debate on the role of monetary policy (see Kaldor (1960, 1982) for a review). |

| | Macro Policy Bondism |
 | | Two alternative policy regimes are considered: a 'monetarist' policy, which sets the growth of the nominal money supply; and a 'bondist' policy, which sets the growth of nominal government debt. |  | | Only if post-tax real interest rates are negative is there any possibility of stability, and even then it requires that capital be highly mobile internationally and that expectations be formed rationally in the foreign-exchange market. |  | | Expectations in the labour and foreign-exchange markets are assumed to be formed either 'adaptively' or 'rationally', so as to test whether one or the other method affects the stability of the model. |

| | New Keynesian Economics, by N. Gregory Mankiw: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty |
 | | A long tradition in macroeconomics (including both Keynesian and monetarist perspectives) emphasizes that monetary policy affects employment and production in the short run because prices respond sluggishly to changes in the money supply. |  | | According to this view, if the money supply falls, people spend less money, and the demand for goods falls. |  | | New Keynesian theories rely on this stickiness of wages and prices to explain why involuntary unemployment exists and why monetary policy has such a strong influence on economic activity. |

| | Introduction to Monetarists [Virtual Economy] |
 | | Monetarists are a group of economists so named because of their preoccupation with money and its effects. |  | | Much of the Monetarists' work revolved around the role of expectations in determining inflation, and a key part of their theory was the development of the expectations-augmented Phillips Curve |  | | It could perhaps have been called 'inflanation' but that sounds more like a medical problem than an economic one. |
