The papers in this edited volume discuss key historical elements of 'monetarism', including coins and moneys of account, the role of bullion and case studies of substitute moneys. The debasement of coinage is fundamental to any study of this kind and is explored within ancient, medieval and early modern contexts across Europe, Asia and the Americas. This comparative approach demonstrates that an understanding of money is fundamental for an understanding of economics and economic history.
