READINGS and
RE-READINGS

Thanks to the dedication and talents of Jeff Tucker from the Mises Institute, one of the finest books on
the financial history of the first half of the 20th century has come online: Benjamin Anderson's
"Economics and the Public Welfare. Financial and Economic History of the United
States, 1914-1946". A must read for any serious student not only of economic history but of
economics as well.
-----
A timely re-reading is the analysis of the Great Depression in
Banking and the Business Cycle  
by T .F. McManus and R. W. Nelson, published in 1937. From the Foreword: "It is a melancholy fact
that each generation must relearn the fundamental principles of money in the bitter school of
experience. The inflationists, it would seem, we always have with us. It is nevertheless a duty of
economists to devote attention to periodic reiteration of the ancient truths of monetary science; it is
necessary to make as familiar as possible the workings of the financial machinery if further errors are
to be avoided in the future. It is to the mismanagement of the monetary mechanism that most of our
recent troubles are chiefly ascribable."
-----
"America's Great Depression" by Murray N. Rothbard gives an account of the causes of the Great
Depression that is quite different from the story usually told in the textbooks of history and economics.
Unlike Milton Friedman and others, Rothbard finds the origin of the Great Depression in the
excessive credit expansion of the 1920s. Rich in historical details, the book also provides an outline
of the Austrian theory of the business cycle.

Currency Review

While the pronouncement of the “euro crises” has become a main topic in
the newsrooms and a plethora of pundits doesn’t get tired predicting the
end of the common European currency, the facts tell a different story. By
the end of December 2011 the euro was quoted higher than its long-term
average since its inception and the official inflation rate of the euro zone
has been kept under two percent. The average debt burden of the
countries that make up the euro-zone is less than that of the United States
or Japan. What is, then, the problem with the euro? Why doesn’t a day go
by without a headline that says that the euro is doomed and that it would
be only a matter of time until the European Monetary Union and the
European Union, too, would blow apart?

The year 2011 will be remembered as the year of the European sovereign
crisis. This crisis is not yet overcome. On the contrary: The risk for 2012 is
that the European crisis will spread by contagion. The stagnation in
Europe and the United States will continue. Along with Japan the major
world economies are in crisis. Step by step this crisis is also affecting
emerging economies.
