These 10 articles presented by Gnos (Center for Monetary and Financial Studies, U. of Burgundy, France) and Rossi (economics, U. of Fribourg, Switzerland) examine issues of monetary
macroeconomics from the perspective of the Dijon-Fribourg School of money emissions, which starts from an essential definition of money in reference to banks’ double-entry book-keeping to
explain how banks blur the distinction between money and credit, giving rise to monetary-structural disorder and speculative asset bubbles. They apply this perspective to macroeconomic analysis
of the global economic systemic crisis of recent years. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
