By Jr., Richard Timberlake, Kevin Dowd, Merton Miller
"Are monetary and banking problems due to a few misguided policies or incompetent policymakers - or to fundamental flaws in monetary and financial institutions - principally, central banks and the legal frameworks that accompany them?"
The chapters in this book examine the history of modern monetary and banking arragements, some of the major monetary and banking problems, ans several options for meaningful reform. To a greater or lesser extent, all the essays incorporate the view that what really matters is institutioanl structure.
