Beskrivning

The functioning of the gold standard has been at the heart of explanations of the interwar depression, particularly as a result of the research of Professors Barry Eichengreen and Peter Temin. In this volume, the interaction between the gold standard and the Great Depression in seven countries is examined by an international team of economists and economic historians. The editor's introduction critically evaluates the Eichengreen Temin thesis and Eichengreen and Temin themselves contribute an afterword.
